BEING HUMAN immediately engages the reader in its humorous assault on everything that everyone believes in – religion, family, marriage, Wayne Newton – nothing is left unscathed in this hysterical new eye-opening book by Mike Sasso.
I won this book on goods reads first reads giveaway. I read this book in maybe an hour, it's a fast read. This book says everything that needs to be said about society and the world around us. The only thing going through my head as I was reading was one single word. Glorious. That is the best way I can describe this book. It's funny, great to read, the truth about the world displayed in a funny light. It sends a message of the world and America needs serious help, and needs to turn their life around. Stop thinking of themselves and realize the truth of life. All in all this book is a must read! One you won't regret reading!
Interesting ideas, terrible execution. This book is a huge waste of paper. If the author could learn to write actual paragraphs, the book would be about 1/4 as long. It's basically a rant, interspersed with lists. As I said, there are some good ideas, but I had to read with a pencil in hand to correct the spelling and punctuation errors. At least hire a proofreader if you're going to produce a book that costs people $15 to buy.
This wonderful little book simultaneously explores in a humorous but serious fashion the reality and illusion of our honestly “being human” or otherwise. The book is honest, self-analytical, cathartic, innocent, irreverent, and bohemian Through his discourse the writer exposes and examines our most basic thoughts, feelings, and social behaviors we accept, practice cherish, hate, resist, and intimately capitulate. As reader, you will find yourself intently engrossed, muttering and otherwise expressing noticeable body language. The book may or may not be read during church service.
The first time I read this book it opened my eyes to the way our society works.....which doesn't work that well. It's extremely honest, yet has a lot of heart. It made me laugh out loud so many times and at one point I wanted to cry. This book will make you feel uncomfortable yet very empowered as an individual because it forces you to rethink what it means to exist as a human being. READ IT!
Won this from a Goodreads giveaway and I know why. It had several obvious typos and it is an awful book. It is just someone's complaints about life thrown into a journal and published. Easily the worst thing I have ever had the misery of reading.
I was given this book by a friend and I couldn't put it down. It's like no other book I've ever read. Funny, tragic, insightful and irreverent all at the same time. A must read!
