Parents say the darndest things...

Sh*t my dad says by Justin Halpern.

In this non-fiction book, Halpern reminisces about the various bits of advice his father has given him over the years. Often abrupt and more than a bit verbally profane, dad’s words of wisdom will nonetheless have you roaring with laughter. There is a lot of truth to what he has to say.


Likes
Freaking hilarious. I honestly laughed out loud – often – while reading this book. The hubby was reading it, after I had already finished it, and kept snickering and laughing as well.

You can tell that even though he swears a lot and is very “to the point”; the senior Halpern really loves his family.

Dislikes
Nothing, really. There is a lot of foul language, but I think if it had been edited it out it would have really done a disservice to the book.

Other
This was first a Twitter page. Now there is a TV show, starring William Shatner as the dad.
