Format:Paperback
It doesn't just contain one line jokes, it mostly has half paged sized stories. The quotes are great, and some things are really clever in it and I haven't recieved through email or found on the web since. It's a clever book, and well thought out. I must admit it's taken me about 6 months to get through it at work - but if I just open up any page I'm certain to laugh at one of the jokes on any page. There were about 3 jokes I didn't understand in total, and that annoyed me, but I haven't found a better joke book since. Great to read on the toilet too - not saying I spend all my time at work on the toilet!

Format:Paperback
The best joke book I have ever seen. After looking through loads of joke books with boring one liners or long drawn out stories, this is a really interesting book. It covers every subject and is a really interesting read. The only problem is that it is so good you can never remember all the jokes you have read recently to tell to your friends. The majority of the jokes are reasonably new and hilarious. My friends kept asking me which ones I had read the night before. There are some older more established jokes but a lot of these are put slightly differently so giving the joke a new lease of life. Brilliant book - highly recommended. I am even buying more for presents.

I concur with what the user below says, it is a brilliant joke book covering virtually everything. Its has the jokes lined up in subjects, so you can get whatever you joke you need. I like the way it gives you the author of the particular joke too. You get to see a lot of familiar names appearing, Joan Rivers, Les Dawson, Woody Allen etc. It has a lot of depth and isn't just about jokes. It has general put-downs, and famous put-downs too. Overall its just well worth the money, it'll have you in stitches!

Still Laughing
I bought this to give to my husband for this Easter, but cannot resist surreptitiously dipping into it and chuckling before he receives it !

The best medicine
I was given this book many years ago. It has brought a great deal of laughter into my home and so wanted to send a copy to my son in law in Uganda. It is very funny.

The best compendium of jokes there is
This joke book is a genuine contender for the best joke book of all time. It is full of great one-liners and some of the best longer jokes - on all topics. Read more

Great joke book
Packed full of great jokes (not all suitable for children with sensitive ears !)- my son (13 yo) has it as permanent item for long car journeys.

Jokes
Average jokes, most of them American with a rubbish sense of humor. Read them, pause and wait for the tumbleweed to roll by.

There are better joke books out there
This is not a bad joke book. There is some good useable stuff in here but unfortunately much of it descends into 'humourous quotations' rather than specifically jokes. Read more

usable joke book.
This book has a lot of jokes in it, given the quantity it is possible to find ones that are funny, however the ratio of good to groan is not very high.
