    Book Review

Reviewed by Anne Boiling for Readers' Favorite

Simple Times by Amy Sedaris is an interesting look at the world of crafting. I found the audio book to be humorous, entertaining, and attention-grabbing. She offers inexpensive, off the wall ideas for home decorating. This is a great companion to the book. While I enjoyed listening to the author and her quirky sense of humor without photos and written instructions most of the craft information is useless. Simple Times will inspire the listener to get a copy of the book and to create wall hangings made of whatever you have and to call them art. This is not a serious craft book, it is Parody. Do not expect crochet patterns, knitting instructions or any other serious crafting project.

This book is well done. It will make a great gift for your favorite crafter. I must warn you that much of this book is raunchy. Don’t give it to your serious little old grandmother.
