[Naomi · Rating 3 out of 5]

A really quick, cute book of insults. Not much more to it, but I can see why it was recommended to me. I enjoyed the quick read and some of them given the time period/target insult were hysterical.

warrants a 'meh' response

[Adrienne · Rating 4 out of 5]

A quick read, but an acerbic and witty one. This small book is filled with both hilarious and cringe-worthy insults from composers, authors, politicians, and more.
