FEVER BEACH......ANOTHER HIAASEN FOOLS PARADE OF FLORIDIANS.....(*****)

 Fever Beach by Carl Hiaasen (2025)

     What can I possibly say about a Carl Hiaasen book that hasn't already been said by thousands upon thousands of reviewers?

     You'll laugh out loud to yourself. To the point of tears. A lot. A whole lot. All through the book.

     (And how many books these days promise that reaction for readers but rarely achieve it.?)

     We're back of course, in the author's favorite stomping ground, Florida. Where the steamy weather serves to incubate and hatch a host of crazies......some corrupt, some stupid some just plain out of their minds and some of them a combination of all three of those conditions.

     A recipe for all manner of hilarious disasters? Oh, you bet.

     A recipe for readers continually shaking into hopeless laughter while turning the pages? Guaranteed.

     As much as I'm sorely tempted to reveal the most riotous moments and dialogue, I wouldn't dream of messing up anyone else's fun; Just read it and have a ball.

     This last sentence of my review doesn't need a spoiler warning. You may have guessed it already.

     You just read a 5 star review.  (*****)
