Review: Great Short Read for that Bus or Train Ride Home

The thing that I enjoy the most about Ace Sidney's writing is that it has a very easy and honest voice with a good lashing of wit. That's a rare find these days, it shouldn't be but with all the young writers overpopulating the streets feeling as though the only way they are to be taken seriously is inhaling a thesaurus and sneezing it out on the page, it's a rare find indeed.This collection of short is great if you've got an hour to kill waiting for your turn at the dentist office or that annual check up at he doctor's office, or as my title suggests, that trip home from work via public transit on the bus or train. The best part is it'll keep you laughing and entertained though it all.Some of my personal favorites from the collection were "Giant Scissors" (Because those things really don't cut anything, and how creepy is it that that mannequin resembled the point of view character?), "Aunt Sylvia" (because only The Brady Bunch would try and use cheap tricks like pretending someone out of a Tiger Beat magazine isn't someone out of a Tiger Beat magazine), and  "How  I wrote my First Book in 4 months..." (because I have a feeling if most people had that sort of incentive to finish a book the obesity epidemic would be out of control). I was able to kill a decent amount of time during a care taking job I have, and I must say, I don't feel like the time would've flown if I hadn't been reading it. Definitely recommend this to anyone who likes to laugh!
