Let Me Off At The Top!

Ron Burgundy's book Let Me Off At The Top! lives up to its expectations. Ron tells the truth when he says "I wrote one hell of a book!" So far the book has been filled with comedy on every page. This book is a book that makes you want to believe that Ron Burgundy is a real person and not just a character in "One of the most quotable movies ever!" (New York Times) The anchorman movies. Ron Burgundy's first love life can relate to Romeo and Juliet in a way that he is in love with a girl who is in another family that his family hates. Also one of the two people is much older than the other, just like in Romeo and Juliet where Romeo is 18 and Juliet is much younger, but in this case Ron Burgundy is younger and his lover is much older. This book is written like Ron Burgundy is actually talking to your right at that moment.

There isn't much in this book that I don't like, every page has something either very interesting, or very funny. I would recommend this book to anyone who liked the Anchorman movies, Wil Farrell fans, or just anybody who likes funny books. I would not recommend this book to a young child, because it does however have some explicity contenet an cusses frequently. Also if someone didn't know who Ron Burgundy is, than I don't think they would completelty understand the book, but still probably find it humorous. The book doesn't have any chapter numbers, but my favorite chapter is the chapter titled "My Hair" the whole chapter talks about Ron Burgundy's hair, the "9 myths" and the hair product Ron Burgundy used when he was growing up. The book is fairly new, so I don't think it is on any best sellers list, but by the end of the year I believe it has a chance to make it to the Best Hardcover Fiction list.
