## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Too over the top
  

*by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2016*

The premise sounded so good.  Joseph does not get into either of the two colleges to which he applied.  In steps his mother Meg, who will move heaven and earth to get her boy into a college.  Hilarity ensues as we see the relationship between a Jewish teen and his mom.  I made it over a third of the way through this book and had to stop.  Life is too short.This was originally written in 1964 and applying to college is much different now.  But that is not the problem.  I kept making comparisons to Portnoy's Complaint and this novel does not come close.  I found the book amusing but not funny.  I felt like I was reading a farce.  And that is the problem.  Meg is so over the top.  The rest of the characters are minor players in comparison.  As I read, I was thinking that this would make a good movie or play.  I would enjoy it more in that format.  Obviously, other reviewers disagree and Mr. Friedman went on to have a long successful career with books and films.  To quote that sage Randy Jackson, "for me, for you Dawg, it wasn't that good."

Hilarious and quirky- an old favorite; so strenuously read and reread that I had to get this new one!
