This is a great follow-up to one of my surprise favorite humor books of 2012, Things Go Wrong for Me.I’m not one to pick up a book by someone who admits to being a liar and a prankster, but because of Rodney’s first book, I knew I’d grab Perhaps I’ve Said Too Much hot off the press – and I wasn’t disappointed.Though I’ve never met him, I can hear him telling me the stories, hands gesticulating wildly, wide grin on his troublemaking face as he makes rambling asides that somehow, magically, help support the point he takes many roundabout turns to get to, all the while keeping me engaged. Rodney’s voice is his own, and – not to give anything away – the only one hurt from his shenanigans is himself (or should I say, the only thing to get hurt is his own pride?). This is what makes a good prankster: in the end, everyone is laughing.Peppered with random thoughts, ridiculous pictures, social media screen shots, and drawings that allow us to peek into his psyche a little more than some of us are prepared for, this book is not just one by a simple storyteller, but someone passionate about making a point – even if his point is simply that he’s in on the joke that life is not something to be taken too seriously.From embarrassing tales of his mom opening a can of whoop-ass, to his own offspring good-naturedly one-upping him, this is a fun read that I’d absolutely recommend. I’ll be telling everyone I know to get both of Rodney’s books for the people in their lives who love a good laugh caused by the kind of stories only someone with a well-honed yet twisted sense of humor can tell.Kim Bongiorno – Author, Freelance Writer, Blogger at LetMeStartBySayingBlog.com
I promised Rodney I'd read the ARC on this and give him feedback on it over a month ago. But, what happened was, I read the book, which made me laugh so hard, I was sick for a week. Then when I got back to work, I would randomly remember bits and start laughing out loud, because I have a terrible attention span and because it's funny. And when I was in negotiations for my new contract, I wasn't paying attention, and when they gave me an offer, I laughed out loud remembering a story from the book (No spoilers here, but your own copy, people!) and HR thought I was laughing at their offer so they counter offered and BAM! More money! True story.Also, read his first book if you haven't already, and you can thank me later.
Do not read this with your Kindle too close to your face. This book also requires a food and drink warning - do not have either of these at all reading this book. You will be cleaning your screen.This is a laugh out loud, wiping tears out of your eyes funny book. Pictures which help understand the topic, an entire chapter devoted to drawings Mr. Lacroix did based on one word, and pranks his kids played on him all add up to a frolicking good time. Be sure to set aside enough time to read it in one sitting, ie not before a funeral or anything. It has been quite a while since I finished it - at least as long as it took me to find his other two books on Kindle Unlimited, before writing this review, and I am still snorting with laughter. Hence my warning not to read too closely at the screen.When you need a hysterical book, this one fits the bill. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Rodney is a wildly talented author with a gift for comedic storytelling. He makes it look easy, which makes me laugh. "Perhaps I've Said Too Much" is filled with hilarity and awkwardness -- highly recommended.
Perhaps I've Said Too Much (A Great Big Book of Messing With People) by Rodney Lacroix is pretty much a hilarious book. It's a follow up to his Things Go Wrong For Me. Both books have laugh out loud moments. And some of mine occurred in a waiting room. You know you kinda want to share what you read with the people who are now staring at you. But at the same time, you think they will think you are crazy for finding what you just read funny.While all of it is pretty much funny, some parts shine more than others. The stories about the interactions between him and his kids are just too funny. His son really is as funny as Rodney claims he is. Payton gets her own strikes in now and then as well. Of course after this book was published, he got married again and his family increased. I am guessing the next book will be even funnier.And then there is the portion where we see his Draw Something art. What a window into the way his mind works that is. Sometimes it is Too Much Information.And you really hope that his boss doesn't read his book, or he will have to be doing something else fulltime to fund his life while practicing his addiction to trickery. And he would need to find some other people to mess with.I am giving this book 4 out of 5 stars. No one is hurt by any of his messing around with them. If anything, a joke might backfire on him or one of his kids might one up him. It's all in good fun. And it is pretty much all funny. I would share quotes, but it would give away too much. If you like funny, autobiographical humor that is occasionally off color, then this book would be a good bet for you. Enjoy!
