Light hearted comedy

I just loved this book. It was easy to read and each day I looked forward to seeing what would happen next in this rural area. It reminded me somewhat of Green Acres, but a bit more likely to happen.

Come On: Reprint Jay Cronley's Books!

I discovered Jay Cronley's books after several of them had been turned into movies--some successfully, others not quite. FUNNY FARM is a hilarious book, and the best parts of the Chevy Chase film come directly from the book. Cronley also wrote QUICK CHANGE (which became the Bill Murray movie) and GOOD VIBES (which became the hilarious and underrated Richard Dreyfus movie called LET IT RIDE). The other Cronley book worth reading is WALKING PAPERS. They're all very funny and worth reading. The one thing that the movies could not capture was Cronley's hilarious writing style, deadpan and dead-on. Check them out.

Funny Farm

Funny Farm By: Jay Cronley This is a great book. At first I thought it was going to be boring. After reading the first 3 or 4 pages I found myself not being able to put it down. I have never read a book that made me laugh before. This book is really funny. I would find myself laughing at the words on the page and people would be starring at me. This book is mainly about a couple that moves to the country. It talks about the problems they come across while trying to get settled in their new home. I would recommend this book to anyone. I think that if you like a book that has a good plot and makes you laugh that you would love this book. The only negative thing I would say about this book would be that there is a lot of cursing. Some people don't mind cursing but if you do then this might not be the book for you. Other than that I think this is a terrific book and you should read it. At least give it a chance before you judge it! Who knows you just might like it!
