I was so fortunate to be given the book “Enlightenment for Nitwits the Complete Guide to 2012 and Beyond” as a review item. I, as a Christian, was cautiously optimistic. Now this book may not be for everyone, but it was written for me. With my sense of humor it completely cracked me up on many different occasions. It’s more of a satire of every day life broken down into different categories (chapters). For instance, there’s a chapter on coping, therapy, the secret, life’s gifts, etc. I need lots of helpful coping strategies, therapy, I want to know the secret of life’s gifts…and lots of laughter. So I read this book immediately.
Here’s some various funny quotes from Shepherd’s book.
Judgmental people are disgusting, too, don’t you agree? They’re so much worse than us good people who don’t judge, they make me want to puke.
Do not judge a transvestite until you’ve walked a mile in his Manolo Blahniks.
My doctor told me that I have the body of a thirty-year-old. An out-of-shape, burnt-out
thirty-year-old with bad genes, but still.
The book is just chock full of good advice for leading a happier life, even if you’re a nitwit! Get reading this book so you can be enlightened too!
Thank you Shepherd. After just losing my father this book gave me a little reprieve and pick me up. Here’s some other deets you might want so you can catch up with all Shepherd’s shananigans!
Enlightment for Nitwits is the first metaphysical/self-help humor collection. It is full of hilarious one-liners and mind-bending pieces on a wide range of subjects:
“I feel lighter (with laughter) already! I found Shepherd Hoodwin’s latest book Enlightenment for Nitwits a fun, easy read. It’s Woody Allen meets Mad Magazine. Full of wit and witticisms for your inner nitwit!” — Nancy Lombardo, Comedy Concepts Radio, New York City
“I love Enlightenment for Nitwits! It is the funniest book I have read in several
decades. If laughter leads to enlightenment, it will certainly do it. Nothing—thank
God—is sacred in this delightful spoof on life in general.”
— C. Norman Shealy, M.D., author of Life Beyond 100
