Strip Tease Audiobook

" Like the way this writer throws in the subtle humor and fun descriptions of his characters and their foibles. "

" A whole lot better than the movie!!! "

" I love anything Carl Hiassen writes. He has such a way of finding such interesting and wacky characters for his books. "

" A good fast read with a plot offering twists and turns, but stays believeable. "

" Another fun Carl Hiaasen book...nice easy and fun reads! "

" this book is about a congressman, a stripper, sugar subsidies, custody battles, fraud and probably some other stuff too. good fluff. "

" Three and a half stars! I'm glad I never saw the movie! A great vacation read! "

" another fun Hiaasen book "

" Didn't finish this one. I was a little tired of reading about a stripper with a heart of gold to finish it. Disappointing because I have enjoyed all of the Hiaasen books I've read up to this one. I will continue to read his work, but I did have to just put this one down. "

" This book reads as fast as fluff but I keep coming back to it for more than just enjoyment. It packs a lot more than expected into its engaging tale than just weird characters. The social commentary may be its most valuable part. "

" Just finished this book. I love these books. They are a great diversion. My mom can't stand them and we usually agree on books. "

" fun guilty pleasure at the beach. (If even half of what he writes about the sugar industry is true, I may have to switch to unsweet iced tea.) "

" Humorous--what a collection of characters! "

" Enjoyed it but it is not as well crafted, nowhere as wild and smooth as Sick Puppy. "

" This is an author who pays attention to details and does his homework. He listens to what people say and how they say it and we get the benefit. "

" Another excellent Hiaasen! "

" Laughing out loud brightens my day! "

" Was a good read. Even being from the 90's. I like how he puts everyone in their place in the end. I read it in one day and it took my mind off thing. "

" Not as funny as Stormy Weather, and the characters don't have as much dimension, but an enjoyable read (or, rather, listen, since I listened to the audiobook) nonetheless. George Wilson is the perfect reader for Hiaasen's books. "

" An audaciously clever example of the superb genre of comedy-noir, in which the story revolves around a stripper who's dealing with divorce, politically corruption, and the hypocrisy of a fundamentalist christian judge, need I say more? "

" A bit quirky to the point of few characters being downright laughable. I finished the book mostly out of curiosity. Not likely that I will read anything else by him. "

" so funny! especially the part about meryl streep's stage name being chesty lefrance was genius. great read "

" I am dying to see the the movie (though I heard it's not that good) just to see Burt Reynolds play the part of the congressman. I hope they left the cowboy boots and vaseline part intact! "

" Missed the governor, but fun. "

" Ah - I loved all of his books. Mindless entertainment wondering how could people possibly BE so mindless and idiotic characters contrasting with idiotic reality that has made such a mess of things. Particularly in south Florida. "

" based on a true newspaper headline! "

" Hiassen is always a quick, fun read with his crazy characters and his passion for the natural Florida. Striptease was less formulaic than his other books, though is still included at least one of his trademark gruesome, creative deaths. His books are fun "mind candy." "
