Prank the Monkey: The ZUG Book of Pranks

“There are some things money can’t buy. For everything else, there’s forgery.”

-Sir John Hargrave

When I was looking on Amazon for some new books to read, I came across Prank the Monkey. Not only did it have five star reviews, the Kindle version is only $2.99. I hadn’t read many funny books in a while. So, I bought it.

The book is written by Sir John Hargrave (No he was never knighted. He actually changed his name to Sir John Hargrave. The book has more on that). He is the owner of Zug.com, a site dedicated to pranks.

Let me tell you. This is probably the funniest book I have read in years. The book chronicles many pranks that the author performs. The pranks are extremely creative and actually pretty high level. Some of them made national or international news.

Not only are the pranks extremely hilarious, the writing itself is unbelievably witty. While reading the book, I was writing down my favorite quotes that I would put in this post. I soon realized that the list of funny quotes is way too long. If you want some light easy reading and are willing to part with a mere $3, then you have no reason not to read this book.
