A Carnival of Snackery: Diaries (2003-2020) Customer Reviews
:- 1.0 out of 5 stars from Tim NJ -- Tracy Ullman is a mis-step : Of course we all love Tracy Ullman. But having her read part of this was a real mistake. It completely took me out of it switching back and forth in the voices. It truly makes no sense. I returned the audiobook and bought the kindle version instead. I was waiting so long for this to come out and am extremely disappointed. ( Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2021 )
- from R. Patrick Baugh -- TOP 1000 REVIEWER : These diaries are amazing! ( 5.0 out of 5 stars )
- 3.0 out of 5 stars from Robert J. Rodriguez -- Audio Format : The best part about listening to a David Sedaris book is listening to him read the material. About half of the book is read by someone else, and I feel cheated. Whenever the other narrating is reading, it just feels wrong. I find myself not listening to the story but feeling disappointed not hearing Sedaris's voice. ( Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2021 )
- 3.0 out of 5 stars from science reader -- It's all anecdotes. : Whether you buy this book or not should depend on your stomach for anecdote. The book is one anecdote after another. Questioning my use of the word, I looked it up. Yes, an anecdote is, “…a short account of a particular incident or event, especially of an interesting or amusing nature.”Yes, that’s what the book is: anecdotes, and most are indeed interesting or amusing, so I read them all, which took a long time. It’s a long book and I came out of it with the literary equivalent of an evening eating chips. You don’t have to have done it to know it’s not a good feeling. If you buy this book, read it a little bit at a time over weeks or months. ( Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2021 )
- 1.0 out of 5 stars from Bradley Crouser -- Boring! His least interesting book yet. : As he's become wealthier and more famous, Sedaris has become far less interesting. More than a bit jaded and even snobbish. The wit and humor is just not there, this time around. Save your $$...wait for it to end up on the sales rack for $5. ( Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2021 )
- 2.0 out of 5 stars from Amazon Customer -- Not my favorite : I’ve read all of his books and I just finished his newest. This has been my least favorite. There’s nothing that interesting or funny. ( Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2021 )
- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Paul Lutter -- The artist's gaze : I'm both reading and listening to this volume simultaneously. I don't want to get into a debate about whether Tracy Ullman was a right choice to co-narrate the Audible version (she is, by the way, fantastic as David's counterpart in reading his words, in my opinion). What I appreciate even more than the complimentary way Ullman and Sedaris read together is the fact that we have been invited into the ways an author notices the world around him, how he engages it, how he plays with language around it, how he experiments with points of view in relation to the everyday realities around him. In a certain way, we are invited into nothing less than his process as an artist, which I take to be a sacred thing. If the eyes are the window to the soul, as the ancients suggested, then what we have here is a glimpse into Sedaris's soul. And what a soul it is. I hope you read this book -- and all the other books he's written. I am better for it, as a writer, a reader, and a fellow traveler in the world. ( Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2021 )
- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Laurin -- Book of the Year : This is a massive book of David Sedaris' funny thoughts and reflections. I love that he shares so much of his life with his readers and after reading it you feel like you would like to be his best friend. David is smart, snarky and sweet. I felt like this book was a real gift to his fans and it is a great sequel to his first diary Theft by Finding. I know it will be a long wait for a third but I also know it will be worth the wait. Excellent book. ( Reviewed in the United States on October 23, 2021 )
- 3.0 out of 5 stars from Amazon Customer -- Somewhat disappointing based on previous books by Sedaris : This is too disjointed. Short snippets of his sluces if life but most of them aren't that interesting. My own diary makes for better reading. On the pisitive, it makes me feel warm and fuzzy reading it because he's always kind and has a gentle way of skewering ridiculous people ( Reviewed in Canada on November 16, 2021 )
- 5.0 out of 5 stars from Avid Reader -- So good! : David Sedaris is brilliant and I've enjoyed every one of his books. ( Reviewed in Canada on October 27, 2021 )
