The Funniest Book I Ever Read

Carl Hiaasen's Native Tongue (1991)

If you have never taken a dip into the mad, sleazy, funny world of journalist / novelist Carl Hiaasen, I would recommend starting here. If you already know Haissen's work, drop what you're doing and get your hands on this book.

When I read Native Tongue, I'd already read several of his novels so I knew what to expect -- I thought. I had no idea I was entering a humor hurricane, blowing me away about every five pages.

The Irish have a saying, "Happiness is a means of travel, not a destination." Native Tongue will make your journey through this crazy world all the more fun.
