Letters from a Nut
K**T
A Classic
This is one of my all-time favorite books. I remember picking it up in a bookstore when it first came out (back when there were bookstores) and actually laughing out loud in the actual bookstore. It was even funnier once I opened the book and began to read it. Seriously, this book is hysterical. It's perfect for bathroom reading. If you have a lot of people who come to your house to use your bathroom, then I highly suggest you get a copy. They will have a hard time not laughing out loud in your bathroom, it's just that good. Ted L. Nancy is a genius.

Fun to read with the family
Very fun. We read a couple of letters now and then after dinner for a good laugh. Not the kind of book I would read beginning to end...just indulge in a letter or two for the laughs and move on.

Mildly amusing
I expected this book to be a lot funnier, especially after reading Seinfeld's introduction. I think he is a lot funnier than this book is. A few of these letters were humorous but not laugh mouth loud funny. I found the majority to be just ridiculous which would explain why the author didn't get an answer to some of them.

I found, this in a nystatin feeling, friendly House and Keeper of a Closet Jester, and she ~ in the back, of all the Movies, says,... Oneday, Why don't you go and look what movies, I had in the closet; and this is not a movie, but a book, and a Quite good, time of one because I was living pretty plainly bored after Surgery, and in pre-post, offerings, of Operations, I did come back, and sit on the cough free couch-landing-area, and with a dumb cat roaming, around me 100% of the time, and within that era, I just take, into stride, also. The things, that I do, and watching, others do it maybe also or first, is the thing, of the best amuse, and Really Read, it, it's letters to corporate, and how I think, I dispel and diffuse, it on call. of otherwise, what is so pertinently, otherwise supposed to be seen as off-collared, or off-colored, coarse and coral vs. carousel working, in networking, and that's it. I said, it before -- I found, this in a wang, Condo Deal for Keeping up with a Bone Differiential making, Dino Dinnner andBinary function Dino Differer, and Palentologist with Artistry and Artistry in the College, and was my Drama Employer for the Yearly Plays, I was in,: as how I knew her;

She casually mentioned loving the book and I found it at a good price here on amazon
I bought this book while driving home from an antique store with a friend with a midcentury dresser clunking away in the back of a van. She casually mentioned loving the book and I found it at a good price here on amazon. When it arrived I surprised her with it and had her read some letters out loud to me from the couch as I sat on the floor. It was quite funny to me. The best part, however, was that it was hilarious to her! She could hardly get through each sentence without weeping a little bit.I have a lot of questions about who the author of this book is. But I will not deduct the stars for that.

If you need a laugh
Maybe it's my sense of humor...my 12 year old brought this book back from the school library. Intrigued by the title, I started to read it. Within a few minutes I was bent over laughing, trying to catch my breath, with tears rolling out of my eyes. I'm not sure which I found funnier, the letter he wrote or the responses from the companies to his letters. I bought this book and sent it to my sister and brother in law who happened to find as much enjoyment as I did. Great for your coffee table or the toilet, airbnb or a house warming gift with a bottle of wine.

Funny, light.
I was looking for a book that would make light reading with some chuckles. This is it! By its nature you can pick it up and put it down anytime you have a couple minutes. It certainly won't consume hours and hours of your time.I have a relative who is (I think) overly serious about writing to consumer corporations. I bought this book with the intention of giving it to him after I had read it. So that's 2-for-1 kinda? In other words it is not much book for the money, but the value comes with sharing it.I recommend this book (unless your only friends are 2,200 red ants. LOU!!!).

Funny!
Got this from Amazon the other day having read a review in the Guardian. Laughed out loud a lot. The sort of book you can open at any page, read a bit have a laugh for 5 minutes or an hour.Ted is a poor traveller with numerous problems, strange pets and unusal requests. Particularly funny are his requests for work with various organisations - the letter about being siamese twin wanting to work in a photocopying shop was especially amusing.

I've given this to other people with my sense of humor . This one is for my Son In Law who will laugh his face off. The author of this book has the most wild imagination . Have you ever heard of someone writing to a Hotel and wanting to gamble dressed as a shrimp ?
