For your (hopefully considerable!) enjoyment, here are the funniest reviews I have ever read. Most but not all are book reviews.
Yes, I collect these, what of it? LOL.
(1) A review of 'Fifty Shades of Grey' by E.L. James which convinced me that I never wanted to read that sh*t. This review, complete with pictures, had me ROTFLMAO.
PART ONEPART TWOPART THREE (2) A review of 'Dark Lover' by J.R. Ward which had me in stitches. Again, I was fully convinced I shouldn't bother! ROTFL.
Here is the review.
(3) A review of an urban fantasy novel titled 'Shades of Gray' by L.M. Pruitt (not to be confused with the E.L. James novel above).
Here is the review.
(4) A review of a so-bad-it's-golden romance novel called 'Pirate' by Fabio (yes, *THE* Fabio wrote a romance novel).
Here is the review.
(5) A review of the paranormal romance 'Bound by Night' by Larissa Ione.
Here is the review.
(6) A collection of some of the funniest reviews EVER are found by looking for the 1-star reviews of Haribo's sugarfree Gummy Bears on Amazon. Just make sure you have a box of Kleenex on hand because you'll be crying (er, from laughing so hard).*
Here are the reviews. (Note that the product used to be HARIBO gummy bears, and is linked as such
in this article in The Atlantic, but Amazon has them as 'Albanese Candy' now for some reason. Did Haribo want to downplay their association with this product?
I know that the company still exists...)
*NB: The first ingredient in sugar-free gummy bears is lycasin, a hydrogenated syrup
"that consists mainly of maltitol, a sugar alcohol that is almost as sweet as table sugar but half as caloric". It has been recommended that consumption NOT exceed 40 grams, so one can wonder what Haribo were thinking when they decided to issue 5-pound bags of these candies. (And yes, I know
there is a warning posted along with the product description, but it's still an odd idea.) Consumption of 40 grams of lycasin has been reported to cause "bloating, flatulence, loose stools, and
borborygmi, the scientific term for tummy-rumbling". (Quotes are from
this article on Haribo's sugar free gummy bears.)
(7) A review of the young adult novel, 'The Jewel' by Amy Ewing. The HTML code in particular had me ROTFL.
Here is the review.
(8) An AWESOME review of a truly rage-inducing romance novel, 'Devil in Winter' by Lisa Kleypas.
Here is the review.
(9) A truly hilarious review of an awful romance novel, 'The Rake's Wicked Proposal' by Carole Mortimer, which had me ROTFL.
Here is the review.
(10) A ROTFLMAO funny review of a book that looks truly awful (i.e. 'Ice Planet Barbarians', by Ruby Dixon), about aliens kidnapping human women to be their sex slaves. Or something. The review is absolute gold...
Here is the review.
(11) A funny review of E.L. James's brand new torture devicebook, 'The Mister'. (The review also discusses how incredibly racist the book is, and that sh*t is NOT funny.)
The review is here.
(12) Another funny review of the same book (i.e. E.L. James's book 'The Mister')...
The review is here.
