For those familiar with Lebanese culture, this book is very enjoyable. If you've not spent any amount of time here, then probably you'll want to pass.
The character stories/descriptions are quite funny. Some not so much, but many are dead on. It's possible to read this book in under a hour, so probably something better checked out from the library rather than purchasing.
this book is okay .. i enjoyed the caricatures more than the text.. it truely shows some lebanese stereotypes, but it is not as funny as the writers meant it to be. although i didn't enjoy it much, i want to read part 1 "life's like that"..
