I think the reason I do not like this one as much is because it deals with politics today (which bores me easily) and ends up being a politcal opinion piece instead of a piece of entertainment.
Even though I still enjoyed it I dud not have as much fun as the previous.
If you like books that do not take much seriously and have perculiar writing style then definately get this book. The poltical aspects are still sprinkled with the same humour the first book had.
