I'd Like to Play Alone, Please: Essays

SLAM DUNK, Tom! I loved this book. I was already a big fan of the author. I got audible and a hardcover. Hilariously funny, touching, insightful, emotional at times. RIP Top DogSome was reminiscent of my own teenage years and experiences. Some was much more detailed accounts of favorite stories amongst us mommies. A lot was totally fresh and awesome. Family life, parenting, celebrities, tennis rackets in strange places. This book has it all!Real quick though -I feel the world needs to know just how fat Brent Kirshner is. There should have been a whole chapter on that subject. Fatsticks made it so Bunz had to write a whole book just so he could complete a sentence without interruption. Even if you have no idea what the hell I'm talking about in half of this review. If you have only seen a bit of Tom Segura's comedy, a JRE episode, or just heard it's a dope book. BUY A COPY. You're doing yourself an injustice by not getting yourself this book. It's tremendous. I hope this lives on forever. It will in my house. I read my favorite passages to my daughter at bedtime.

I have never laughed so hard while reading a book! I have watched all of Tom Segura’s specials multiples times and recognized some stories from his stand up, but he was able to provide more detail in the book. Since I have seen his stand up, I was able to catch onto his speech cadence I’m his writing, which made this book even better knowing somewhat of how he would deliver a joke. Didn’t know how the life of stand up was, but he was able to provide his experiences and I have some new found appreciation for what they do to bring people joy! Thanks for the laughs Tommy Buns! Gonna keep my jeans high and tight with only 4 strokes.

I thought that Tom's book of essay's was a really fun read. It was exciting to get to look behind the curtain and see how this comedy megastar we see on our screens became the person that he is. This is very easily readable and holds your attention the entire time. My only complaint is that the book wasn't any longer than it was. I couldn't put it down.

I’m a big Tom Segura and Stand up Comedy Fan. This was a fun read with familiar stories which included new content, new content, lessons, and an incredible amount of giggles.

It's so much fun to read every single story, especially this chapter, "Pick one". It is even better to pair this book with his Audiobook as if you are listening to Tom telling these stories to you in your living room.

Came in perfect timing and in perfect condition. LOVED this book! Everything you could want from Tom Segura!

I'm a big fan of Tom so maybe I'm biased towards this book. I'm not a critic but do enjoy comedy and Tom is in my top 5 favorite comedians. Honestly I don't even read all that often anymore but couldn't pass this one up. If you're a fan of his work on the stage and have the ability to make it through a book just get it and laugh. If this was available as an audio book read by Tom I'd buy that over this just for the experience but I think it's worth it either way.

Awesome book, lots of laughs and references that YMH fans would notice.

Funny and entertaining short stories. I would recommend the read to certain people, not everyone.

Fácil. Entretenido. 2 días. Recomendado.

Excellent delivery time. Arrived in perfect condition. Not read yet but sure it will be a great read.
