Reviews

This is the best book of embarrassing and strange photos of people who look like my family that I have ever seen.
Judd Apatow (<i>Superbad</i>, <i>Knocked Up</i>, and <i>40 Year Old Virgin</i>)
I wept with laughter fourteen times while reading this book and snorted aloud twice. I dare you to find a higher weep/snort ratio in any other publication.
Karen McCullah Lutz, screenwriter of <i>Legally Blonde</i> and <i>The Ugly Truth</i>
Anything that both makes me laugh and think my family isn't so embarrassing deserves to be a book.
Joel Stein, <i>Time</i> magazine columnist
The most remarkable thing here is that people are willing to share such indignity with the world, but we're glad that they have because it's internet gold.
<i>The Guardian</i>
This is genius!
Graham Norton
Being a test tube baby doesn't seem such a bad idea after looking at these folks. I laughed till it hurt. To paraphrase Tolstoy... every family is freaky in its own way.
David Byrne
