Super Way Fun
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I love love love this book. Where else can you get in-your-face brutal honesty that is socially acceptable from obnoxious teenagers but not from those of us who still kick and scream over stuff that other grown ups, well, think that we should just get over? I am not a big Darwin fan (yeah, go ahead, I'm used to that), but in the Laurie Rosenwald world, I could totally sit beside him on a plane. A must have. Don't miss Dave in his Peruvian chullo hat (he is so bad!), excellent McCullers references, warnings about foreign dinner conversation, and advice to boys on eating soup. Way cool and very informative. This should be used as a textbook for, um, something or other.

Honesty
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Being the parent of a 14-year-old girl I'm happy to have found Rosenwald's book. At first glance it may seem flip or a bit goofy, but there is quite a bit of earnest, useful advice for young women that is written in a direct and heartfelt matter. Highly recommended.

What a refreshing pleasure it is to have a Laurie Rosenwald book in your hands. Bright and funny and sophisticated and wise and playful and creative and tactile and amusing and most of all, so deadly honest, which we could all use a little more of in this world.
For All Minds That Love to Frolic
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Rosenwald exalts us with extreme truth expressed with so much original spunk and clarity, you'll feel inspired to bake Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Muffins," a concept introduced in the book where you combine ingredients which don't go together...and YET THEY DO! Like beets and chocolate. Like vegetarians and meat. Laurie speaks in fluent collage. She combines bits of images, paint, rants and ideas like a surrealist writing a survival manual. And the best thing is, IT ALL MAKES SENSE. I have never met a book so vastly original, strange, poetic, hilarious, helpful and hip all at once. Laurie Rosenwald makes THINKING FUN... which is why this is an excellent book for all minds that love to frolic.
