Dude, Where's My Country

10 journalers for this copy...
I bought this book as a treat to myself after passing my final exam at Law school. In fact I had been looking for a Terry pratchett in english, but I couldn't find any, so I took this one instead: equally funny, but in a different way. Even though I am not from the USA some of the things Michael moore points out can be translated to different countries, different governments. And a good laugh is always a good laugh :)

Sent yesterday to Kislany.
Michael Moore: wonderful! I love this guy who does not fear to express his opinion vis à vis the American President!

Sending to the next in the ring.
Was a good book, haven't read it cover to cover though, only bits and pieces that were more interesting for me.
Thanks for adding me to the ring.

I got it today, but I am going to change places with quico (since we are from the same town), cause I don't have time to read it now.
Got it today from Pauloca.
As usual, Michael Moore speaks his mind about George W. Bush and friends. I liked the book, but I must confess that this time I prefer the movie (Fahrenheit 9/11): the face of Bush when he's told the USA are under attack is worth a thousand words.
Pmed Pauloca, telling her the book is avaiable.
Still no time to read it.
brasileirandesa asked to be skipped.
PMed brujula for the address.
Brujula has too many bookrings with her at this moment and asked to be moved to the end of the list.
Pmed Xanocas for her address.

Here it goes to Xanocas!
I read this book after reading Stupid White Men (the portuguese version). I also saw his documentary: Fahrenheit 9/11.
As Atenea-Nike puts it: a lot of the things/situations described by Michael Moore can be translated to other countries. It's a schocking and funny book at the same time (if you still can be schocked by what politicians do and say).

Read and reviewed. Please don't think I'm a brat, I just didn't get as much out of reading this as I thought I would.

Thank you daemonwolf and Atenea-Nike for sharing!
As I have many books to read and I'm the last one on the ring, I think I won't start it right away, so it'll take me a little over a month to read it, if it's ok...

This book has been written to try to get americans to vote for someone else than Bush. Some of the things Moore writes are reasonable, some others are rather weird (can you really picture Oprah Winfrey running for president?)
It is an interesting book, funny at times, but I felt there were too many redundancies in it.
Thank you for organizing this ring Atenea-Nike!
I'll mail it back to you as soon as I get to a post-office!
