A brilliantly funny exploration of the Sunshine State from the man who knows it best: Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times best-selling author Dave Barry.

We never know what will happen next in Florida. We know only that, any minute now, something will. Every few months, Dave Barry gets a call from some media person wanting to know, "What the hell is wrong with Florida?" Somehow, the state's acquired an image as a subtropical festival of stupid, and as a loyal Floridian, Dave begs to differ. Sure, there was the 2000 election. And people seem to take their pants off for no good reason. And it has flying insects the size of LeBron James. But it is a great state, and Dave is going to tell you why.

Join him as he celebrates Florida from Key West at the bottom to whatever it is that's at the top, from the Sunshine State's earliest history to the fun-fair of weirdness and gunfire ("Our motto: 'Come back! We weren't firing at you!'") that it is today. It's the most hilarious book yet from "the funniest damn writer in the whole country" (Carl Hiaasen, and he should know). By the end, you'll have to admit that whatever else you might think about Florida - you can never say it's boring.

Still had moments where I laughed out loud. But he focuses too much on and bad language which I did not enjoy.

Funny but not side splitting

I was touched by the respectful way Florida tourist attractions were made fun of, which they totally deserve. Saw you last week at Fresno's Town Hall, Dave. Please come back.

Barry is the modern day Twain!
Like Mark Twain, Dave used the contemporary language and voice to provide humor while pointing out hypocrisy and stupid behavior in the world!

What made the experience of listening to Best. State. Ever. the most enjoyable?

I loved how he started off, "What makes people think, ' What's up with Florida?' I think it all started with the Election of 2000. All the other states seemed to know who they'd voted for. But Florida,....." ,..ever since then other states love to publish strange news stories about us." But I love my state."

What other book might you compare Best. State. Ever. to and why?

I laugh at all of Dave Barry's books.

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

I would have preferred if Dave Barry had read his own book.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I visited Florida in the 90's /rented a car to explore, like Barry suggested.. Parts were very nostalgic. (The Keys are beautiful - like the Caribbean, Hemmingway's house with moss-covered trees like the Deep South, etc.)

Any additional comments?

I started to fall asleep last night listening to the "Lock and Load" machine gun firing range, for the public. I couldn't believe they'd let my friend's 11 year old try one when they visited there. So I want to listen more to see if it's true.

A timely book about a Swing State - Election 2000?

I loved this book! Dave Barry has such a knack for describing the mundane and downright weird experiences he's had in Florida as a native. What a fun ride. The narration was fantastic, I felt as though the comedy was acted as it was intended to be performed.

Recommended to me by a Florida native!

Good, but not Dave Barry’s best work. The narrator is a bit too much as well.

Good, but not Dave Barry’s best

In typical Dave Barry style, this book was hilarious in its details. He covers some of his familiar rants (celebrity DJs) and some fresh territory (the infamous Florida Skunk Ape). This book is worth the listen...it actually made me feel a little better about our wacky country, and certainly its weirdest state.

Hilarious book, you will laugh out loud

This book is fun to read and quite funny.

Dave Barry once again pens a fantastic Thomas. Yeah Florida's got its weirdness but no more than a state if anything we're just documented better.

you have to love Florida
