Customer Reviews

Never gets old.

Pure mindless fun taken from the headlines. Truth certainly is weirder than fiction and Chuck always manages to put together hilarious compilations. This particular version is dated, but still very funny.

Weird News, Weird Book?

The first thing that calls the attention of the customer is the title. Many people don't go beyond that, but to those brave enough to pick the book up, you will find a nice collection of true, but weird, news recollected from around the world.The news are divided in categories, thus making this book excellent for both long and short reading.Consider this book the next time you feel down, it will make you laugh! :)

Excellent second sequel

This is the third book in the News of the Weird series.It is just as good as the others and is also quite funny.

PAGE TURNING BOOK ON THE TRUE WEIRDNESS OF HUMANITY

I received this book as a gift and read it in two days. It's written in a short straight forward way much like newspaper articles. I never knew the depth and scale of the human experience to be so odd until I read this book. I recommend it highly for light vacation/beach side reading. It had me laughing & cringing at the same time. I read it to my husband on a road trip to Seattle from L.A. and it kept us entertained.
