### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A beautiful and incredibly funny book!
*by S***I on 19 August 2023*

Rarely have I read a funnier or better book. The genius of Norm Macdonald continues to stand out.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredibly funny, captures the true essence of Norm. The ending is also great.
*by A***R on 7 February 2023*

Awesome book. Must buy if you have enjoyed his stand up and sense of humor.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Funny book, bad paper quality
*by A***R on 25 February 2023*

I have listened to the audiobook and read the ebook from the funny fella and just want the book to be there, at arms reach, till the end of time. And if I tie my end of time to this quality of paper, I maybe have a year to live. I have seen better paper quality in the books sold outside the railway station...at the tenth of the price.
