Alexa, Tell Me a Joke by Alexa

Tell Me a Joke by Alexa
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is not your usual joke book (believe me I read a lot of 100 Jokes joke books in my youth), this is meant to be an interactive joke book for you and your Amazon Echo/Dot/whatever they are calling it now. It’s a quick read, and I’ve read it a couple of times to myself now, but I hadn’t checked out the interactive part until this week.

Like all jokes, they’re broken up into sections such as: space jokes, food jokes, math jokes, etc. If you’re looking for something fun, ask Alexa to tell you a dirty joke.

But, back to the interactive part. There’s almost one of these every other section. The book will give you the set-up to ask Alexa, but won’t provide the punch-line. Now, I did have a couple of these that Alexa wouldn’t answer. I don’t know if this was how I said it (Alexa has trouble understanding me sometimes because of some of my pronunciations), or if it was something that Alexa was once able to answer and now isn’t.

Honestly, that’s my only complaint, and it’s a pretty small one as it’s almost entirely my fault. This was also offered free on Alexa’s birthday.

Obviously this is a bit of niche ebook, as you would need an Amazon Echo to fully enjoy it, but it is still a fun little joke book.
