Not as Good as Leary's Stand-Up Material, But Still Worth a Try


Why We Suck: A Feel Good Guide to Staying Fat, Loud, Lazy and Stupid by Denis Leary (Viking Adult, 2008, 240pp.)

Irish-American actor/comedian Denis Leary takes no prisoners in this autobiographical debut, covering his life from boyhood to parenthood, as well as bombarding the reader with opinions on everything Oprah to autism. While not as deviously funny as his live stand-up stuff, it still provides some laughs and shines with the eviscerating wit that his fans know and love.
