daianapartiu's review against another edition
3.0
I picked up this book by the suggestion of Trevor and because it naturally fit into "Picked it up because of the title" category for the Popsugar challenge. The satire, the raw humor, and the clever spins a whole new light on sex. Nevertheless, a fun read that is quite different than the Roald Dahl I came to know in my childhood reading.

A particularly vile collection of stories, most of which read like extended, blatantly misogynistic jokes. Hard to square this with Dahl's work for children, but people are complicated.
