Review: Fun read for the intellectually daring - I've seen this book critiqued for plot deficits and stereotypes. I don't think Penn would be surprised at these critiques, as the criticisms concerned with political correctness are probably what prompted him to write this book to begin with. I'm under the impression that he authored this book from a point of frustration. It is heavily metaphorical and many character outcomes are implied, rather than made explicitly clear. If you want a book that spoon feeds you plot points and crams the thoughts of what every character is thinking at every minute of the story, this is probably not for you. If you want to be guided along the whimsical journey of Bob Honey, and see where your thoughts take you, try this book out. For whatever reason, I just got what Penn was doing, and I think you either get it or you don't. Yes you will have to pull out a dictionary, that doesn't have to "trigger" you. Learn a new word. Penn takes language and use of alliteration for a ride, and he is clearly not taking himself too seriously here. Neither should you.
Review: Misogyny at it's finest! This book deserves so many trigger warnings! - This is truly one of the most ridiculous books I have ever read, and I don't mean that in a good way. I had to read this for reasons related to my job and I wish I could get those hours spent reading and writing about Bob Honey back. My obvious qualms with Sean Penn as a person rear to an ugly head in this book. He has a white savior complex in real life, and it is definitely apparent in this. Each interaction with a character who isn't white reeks of racism. He attempts to pass it off as satire, but it is impossible to read it that way because of how he acts in real life. There's no separating the art from the artist. I think what is the worst about this is his satire is an "attempt" at criticizing men like him without taking any responsibility for his own actions. Sorry, Sean -- it doesn't work that way. You, too, are a rich, cis, white male contributing to the oppressive atmosphere of America. Then... oh my... there's his OUTRIGHT critique of the #metoo movement and his objectification of women within the book. It's disgusting. Don't trust anyone who glorifies Louis CK over traumatized victims of sexual assault (a literal line in a half-assed attempt at a poem at the end of the book). Don't read this misogynist piece of junk. Save your money. I beg of you. Don't even read it for gags. It's truly not worth it.

### ⭐⭐⭐ A Good First Book
*by A***E on April 2, 2018*

I wish the message were cloaked a little better as good literature so often does. Perhaps it was an intentional show of First Amendment rights still (for the moment) solidly in place. Maybe the material is still too relevant but I felt like a neighbor over for a distracting evening of dinner and drinks when the host starts arguing at the top of his lungs with the wife. It's a clear frustration of the author and despite sharing almost every single one of his views, I feel Master Penn could have done a more clever manuscript that would have had a greater impact and upped the pure entertainment value. I salute the man and hope he keeps writing and develops these new set of skills to match his other-vocational talents. On a final note Penn's constant use of alliteration might provide a relatively relaxing rhythm (see what I did there) for some but I found it distracting and a little annoying. I hope it was the voice of the narrator and not that of the author.
