    It's hilarious! I didn't read this book at first because of the title, but then I saw how high the rating was and gave it a try. I never expected to find such a masterpiece. I laughed so hard I couldn't stop. This is definitely the funniest book I've ever read on Tomato Book. I've been following it for a year now. It started with a 9.7 rating, then dropped to 9.9, and now it's 9.8. It's just so funny. Who understands the pain I feel when I get called on by the teacher to answer a question in class because I laugh too loudly?
