Too Fat to Fish

This is a great book a must for any fan of Artie or the Stern Show. Some stories are retold but most are new or add new details. You'll laugh you'll cry you'll tell your friends to buy it

Too Fat to Fish is a great book for Artie fans, and possibly even better for people that have not heard some of the stories on the Stern show before. Artie has an entertaining writing style and I laughed often. I hope he lives long enough to write another book.

I went in expecting nothing but raunch, swearing and filth. I was dead wrong. There's plenty of that and it's all good, but the Artie story is quite the tale. Tragic yet hilarious. Small town growing up is often like a dark comedy. He's had his share of problems at home and in his own life, but achieved a level headed awareness early enough, that he's gone on to be quite successful. Good book. Well written, insightful, and he holds nothing back.

I got the audio book and I thought it was fantastic. I was disappointed that Howard's forward was not part of the audio book or even in print with the CD's. The book was funny, sad and I truly enjoyed every minute of it. I couldn't wait to get in my car and listen to the book, it only took me about a week to finish. I am anxiously waiting for the second book. I just hope that Artie will be well enough to read the entire book on his own next time. I recommend this book to everyone. It was honest and brilliant. Thanks for the laughs.

I did not read the book. I purchased this book for my brother for Christmas. He said it was a great read. I hoping to borrow it soon.
