Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: "AN OMG READ!" - "FUNNY & SERIOUS & AMAZING" - "REAL" - "COOL" -
"IMPRESSIVE" - "A UNIQUE LITERARY WORK OF ART!"
A pop culture/humor book, featuring a list of "1,001 People That Suck," along with black & white illustrations, quotes, quips & observations about the state of global humanity. The definitive guide to bad humanity, unkind behavior & people that just plain *suck*.
The book champions kindness, tolerance and understanding, and "publicly shames" people who commit social crimes. As these crimes generally go unpunished, offenders fail to suffer a consequence, and thus, their bad behavior & unkindness continues.Â
The book, however, delivers a consequence. It "officially" (and entertainingly) identifies 1,001 people who engage in bad humanity & unkind behavior, and labels them as "people that suck." Pointing out humorous, serious, and questionable instances that are "really, just not right," the book skewers offenders, and condemns them in the process.
"If you think people behaving badly is not an epidemic, it is." There are over 2 million entries on Google and over 6 million videos on YouTube that reference "people suck." People are disturbed by bad behavior.  And by ignoring, downplaying or accepting unpleasantness, we are creating serious, larger issues. Bullies are causing children to commit suicide, road rage is causing drivers to harm other drivers by running them off the road - even stalking, assaulting and killing them. The bad guys are starting to win. The good guys need to do something. We've reached a tipping point. "Enough is enough."
Media reviewers are loving the book, saying it's: "hilarious" - Barbara Bellesi (BellaNYC Magazine: The Influencer Issue), "fun" - Pam Margolis (An Unconventional Librarian), "one of the funniest books I have read in a long time" - Kathleen Martin (Mom and Pop Culture).
Goodreads reviewers from across the United States are saying it's: "light & fun"- Gerard (Jacksonville, FL) , "cute" - Ashley (Mineral, VA), "funny and serious and amazing!" - Tucker (Kennesaw, GA), "real" - Shana (Clifton, NJ), "an OMG read...LOVED this book!!!!" - Gary (Minooka, IL), "an ideal gift book" - Peacejanz (Fort Pierce, FL), "I am definitely going to pick up more copies of this book and give them as Christmas gifts this year." - Tami (Pacoima, CA).
Readers can commiserate about the subject, and engage in discussion on the book's blog. They can also view entries from the book, along with videos-of-the-week, "People That Suck in the News," top tweets for #peoplesuck, social challenges, and additional content.
The book also allows readers to reflect upon and examine their own behavior, and engage in social change.
"I have adjusted some of my behavior thanks to this book!" - Neslihan, Goodreads
"It was fun, and makes you think about yourself and others. Are you this person that nobody likes? AM I?" - Marit, Goodreads
