5.0 out of 5 stars
Best pop culture fiction,
This review is from: RYAN SEACREST IS FAMOUS: Stories by Dave Housely (Paperback)
"RSIF" is a fantastic read with wickedly amusing satire. In his debut, new author Dave Housely has masterfully put together insightful stories with an even more impressive roster of characters. From the very beginning you will enjoy...the writing and the tongue-in-cheek-but-oh-so-accurate truths of our pop culture. This is a clever, well done compilation of short stories that you will find yourself reading over and over again.

Great and insightful satire on our modern culture,
This review is from: RYAN SEACREST IS FAMOUS: Stories by Dave Housely (Paperback)
The stories in Dave Housley's "Ryan Seacrest is Famous" cut right to the core of our modern American culture with all its emphasis on the surface of appearances, money, and materialism, and he does so in often surprising and always outrageously funny ways (e.g., what would a modern Jack Kerouac look like?). These satirical stories are hard to put down and will make you laugh and nod, and say "Uh huh," over and over again. Definitely, worth a read or two.Mitchell Waldman, author of Petty Offenses and Crimes of the Heart

Laugh out loud Funny,
This review is from: RYAN SEACREST IS FAMOUS: Stories by Dave Housely (Paperback)
Ryan Seacrest is Famous made me laugh out loud from the first story. While I don't usually read short story anthologies, I picked this one up after a friend recommended it. I read the first three stories the first time I picked it up and finished it over the weekend. It's well-written pop culture satire that will have you nodding in recognition. I've already lent it to a friend.
