What a fun read! January 7, 2009 I came across this series at a friend's little private room, you know the one. I loved it and read it over the next few days. Lots of trivia, funny stories, odds and ends.
So I recently bought this "Unsinkable Bathroom Reader" as a gift for him. Of course I read it cover to cover first, then skimmed back through to review the better parts again, before giving it to him.
If you are looking at this review, you're probably already famaliar with the series. This is another great addition. I very much enjoyed it.
This book taught me, "When Life Gives You Lemons...Shut Up and Eat Your Lemons"
An annual joy December 31, 2008 This is a great annual gift that is read cover to cover time and time again! Definitely a "boy gift." : )
I own The Bathroom Reader #1 thru #20. December 30, 2008 I own The Bathroom Reader #1 thru #20, and this volume is great like all the others. I'm hooked. I bought almost all of these from Amazon, and have been satisfied with all deliveries. I had a problem just once - I tried returning a book. I mailed it back to Amazon, and never heard anything from them again. That was the first and only time I tried returning an item to Amazon.
Uncle John's does it again! December 14, 2008 It's hard to believe they can deliever such an entertaining product year after year. I've been a Uncle John's reader for many years. Uncle John's Unsinkable is one of the best I've read. My only regret is that I have finished this book. Now I must wait for the next book to come out! Basically my review is...If you've read any of the Uncle John's series and enjoyed them, you won't go wrong with this edition!
Always a great read! December 10, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I love the Bathroom Reader series, and this book was exactly what I was hoping for. It is funny, thoughtful and always enlightening. It's great to have in the bathroom, with different article lengths depending on how much time you have. :)
