Found this in the library book sale pile and was attracted to it because it mentioned Jerry Seinfeld in the corner (who only wrote an introduction to the letters in the book). I was delighted to find it to be a collection of correspondance in business letter format. 5 minutes into what was supposed to be a cursory glance to see if I wanted it, I was laughing so hard (in the library) that I made a complete fool of myself. I was clutching my stomach and laughing uncontrollably. I immediately pu

This is a compilation of real letters written to government officials, restaurants, hotels, etc. that are so funny and unbelievable, I had to read some of them over and over again! Some of the things you dream of saying but don't.

A collection of fake letters to companies and the serious responses received. A couple were quite funny, but most were just strange.

If I could give this 25 million stars, I would. I find it just that funny!

Although I haven't totally completed this book I'm going to mark it as complete anyway since I feel I have a pretty good feel for it. Very amusing! Some of these letters are hysterical! Although some of them fell flat, a good portion of these letters had me giggling uncontrollably. I would recommend to read this book in spurts as the letters could get old. It would be a good book to place in a guest room or (ahem) a bathroom--please ignore the spurt association with that one!

More silly letters from the wacko Mr. Nancy. Very funny, but a couple might be a little much for students. It will stay in the professional library.

I really enjoy his observational humor and he does a tremendous job of keeping most of the jokes a guiltless crime by not overtly making fun of the respondents. The only complaint I have with this book is you kind of feel like you've read the entire book after about 4 chapters.

Originally I was giving this four stars, because after reading the first one and half of this one I felt like I was just reading the same few letters with words that had been rearranged. But five stars just for the mosquito letter and the Beatlemania hospital stay.

This book isn't bad, but I recommed reading it in short bits. A page here, a page there. I made the mistake of reading it for long periods of time, and letters become repetitive, and weren't as entertaining.

Sequels are never quite as good as the first are they? It seems silly to say, but this one seemed contrived. I still read and enjoyed it, but I would have been happier stopping after #1.

More of the same as the first Letters From a Nut - good for a laugh or three any time you want a break from serious reality.

seriously, after reading the first book, how can you not move on to the second

Hilarious. Found myself laughing out loud and reading parts over again.

Very funny...sounds like Sienfield's humor and most likely his zany work.
