Start your review of Pattaya Youtuber: And other true stories from Thailand
This book was recommended to me by a friend who has been travelling to Thailand for the last few years. Some of the stories are set in Bangkok, some in Pattaya, and one (I think) in Phuket. I guess these stories don't really give the reader an insight into real Thai culture, but they certainly paint a pretty vivid image of the main tourist areas around the country. The stories are fun and at times humorous. I look forward to going to Thailand soon and seeing how accurate the stories really are.

These stories are amazing. The story 'Pattaya Youtuber' is a fascinating read, but I really loved the one about the ping pong show. That was both hilarious and shocking. I couldn't believe what I was reading!

I wish I could slap Tom Howe he sounds like a real loser. Thank you G.O.P
An amazing insight into some of the sleazeballs that live in Pattaya. That Thomas Andrew Howe (Barfines and Powerlines) is an extraordinary character. He gives alcohol to underage girls on the beach, insults locals, pimps out women to dance online for cash and he doesn't pay any tax on his earnings. What a lifestyle!

Seven very interesting stories about Thailand. Two of the stories in particular have very good twists at the end, and two of the stories give a great insight into the weird culture of creepy Youtubers filming on the streets and in the bars in Thailand.
too many fake accounts to raise the rating of the book
shame on you
