The Silliest Stories Out Of Bustleburg America's Worst City

The Silliest Stories Out of Bustleburg: America's Worst City

I received a copy of The Silliest Stories Out Of Bustleburg America's Worst City for review.

For starters, this is the most appropriately titled book I have read if not ever, at least in a long, long time. 

Bustleburg is indeed America's Worst City. It is so dystopic that they can't even see dystopic from their houses. The city has no redeeming social value. 

The denizens of this plane crash, train wreck, volcanic aftermath of a city are well equipped to live in this (insert your own horrific descriptor here). 

Told by various citizens of the city, life is described in a series of short stories. Misery, discomfort, and danger are the status quo. 

You may be thinking to yourself that this must be a dark dreary book. But you would be thinking incorrectly. The stories are so bizarre as to make the reader laugh at the incongruities. 

Talk about escapist fiction, no connection to reality here folks. Check your sense of logic and justice at the door. This book is tongue planted firmly in the cheek fun.

I found it to be a refreshing break from more serious reads. Enjoy!
