Sh*t My Dad Says by Justin Halpern
4.0
This is both screamingly funny, like upsidedown-falling-out-of-your-chair funny, and deeply wise.
It's a book that gives a lot if you let it.
Possibly the first book published from a Twitter feed, @shitmydadsays begain as a bunch of funnybutwise sayings of Justin's father, and when the followers registered about three million or so, he realised he had something.
This book is the result.
Interspersed with the familiar (if you're a fan) sayings are longer anecdotes of life with Dad. He's definitely a character, but despite his blunt and salty sayings, he's got his head scrued on straight and he's got the best interests of his children at heart. You can learn a lot from Justin's Dad!
