Dear Mrs. Fitzsimmons (The Audiobook) Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Meh, that's about it for me here. There were some funny buts here and there but for the most part this book didn't do it for me. I expected more funny and less navel gazing. "

" Surprisingly stellar and gripping (even touching at times) memoir from a veteran stand up comic and frequent visitor on the Howard Stern show. "

" Fitzsimmons is a good writer, but ultimately, the book seemed a little wandering and not funny enough to be a collection of unrelated essays. "

" I have read several of these comedian memoirs including sarah silverman, carolla, and david cross. This one is good. It isn't as funny as one would ecpect, as much as it is a memoir of how he got to where he is. I enjoy his podcasts and think he has a good comedic voice, so I enjoyed it. Easy reading. "

" Weirdly depressing... "

" ... I thought it looked funny, and it has it's funny moments, but it has seriously taken me several weeks to read, and I'm not even done. It's definitely not a page-turner that you can't put down. I put this one down and decided to re-read a Chelsea Handler book instead. "

" Not as funny as I thought it will be. "

" Good story, good writing, but somewhat rushed. Either needed a few more years or a few more pages. "

" Amusing but uneven. Not a bad book, but not worth passing something else up. "

" Not very good memoir of a perpetually angry Irish stand-up comic. "

" Eh, this was ok. I thought I would relate to it, but did not. "

" High-larious and irreverent. "

" I actually enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I knew nothing about Greg Fitzsimmons before reading it other than seeing him on talk shows sometimes. He is surprisingly insightful and sensitive. I felt that the end was a bit rushed but overall I enjoyed it. "

" I could have written a better book with a piece of chalk and an hour of time. "

" Read because he has connections to Howard Stern. It wasn't as funny as I was hoping. From the description I thought it would be more comedy about notes sent home from school when he was a kid, but it was definitely a typical memoir. "

" Strong start. Weak, meandering finish. "

" How growing up in an Irish-Catholic family with a well-known alcoholic father can result in an adult with anger issues who resents anyone in authority or who doesn't "show respect". Disappointing. "

" One of my faves from the Howard Stern show... Funny, but deep down he's a sensitive guy. "

" Pretty good, had funny moments, but I expected it to be funnier. Sort of melancholy. "

" Not bad. The captions under the pictures drew may in and may have beenthe funniest thing in the book. "

" You have to like Greg in order to like this book because it centers around HIM and not so much the world around him. I enjoyed it. "

" Greg's standup is better than this book. I expected something funnier and less like a biography. The letters were almost a side story rather than the focus. "

" Thought is was going to be a lot funnier than it actually was. Don't get me wrong it entertains but Fitz is soon funny I thought the book was going to be more comedy than life history. "
