The book is much much funnier than AFF, and although it's not as consistently funny as IHTSBIH, it still hits the same hilarious high-notes.At times the book comes across like the autobiography of a Brett Easton Ellis character - someone whose life you're horribly compelled to follow but whose abject detachment from reality is almost impossible to process.Whether you've been a fan of his rise to fame or been a schadenfreude spectator of his crash-and-burn cinematic career, you'll enjoy the laughs just as much as the times Tucker awkwardly pulls back the curtain on his own embattled psyche. In a way the absurd dichotomy between spending dozens of pages ripping on Katy Johnson's childish cartoons (easily the worst part of the book) and breathlessly insulting her existence from every possible angle, but then finally ending the section about her with what seems like a chivalric and heartfelt apology along with an attempt at taking on her monstrosity of a mother is just as absurdly comical as the intentional humor.To really appreciate "Hilarity Ensues" you first have to read the biographical spread on him in Forbes magazine that was released in January of 2012, shortly before it came out. In it you'll learn about Tucker's recent forays into psychoanalysis and his own pained efforts to stop being such a raging jackass so that he can start to build a normal life - one that's not built around hiding from his own issues inside as many bottles and confrontations as he can find.With that in mind the moments of moral genuflection within the book make a certain sort of sense - in attempting to justify his behavior and couch it within some sort of larger moral framework Tucker bares a soul he clearly isn't very comfortable with. His advice about rebelling from what your parents and society want you to do assumes that everyone had the same unstable upbringing as he did, so it doesn't apply to every reader - but at the same time there's a legitimate sincerity and more than a little truth behind it.This book likely marks the end of the Tucker Max the literary world has cringingly come to know for the past decade, like Thompson without drugs or Hemingway without a bottle it's hard to imagine Tucker creating compelling writing without being a drunken jackass. But that's not to say what comes next won't be worth following, what other beginning "Hilarity Ensues" marks the start of will hopefully be as entertaining as the past ten years of debaucherous adventures. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hilarity Ensues...mostly *by B***6 on Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2012* Reading Tucker Max is like walking in on your bestfriend *expletive* your girlfriend. You're so upset, you just want to stab him in the spleen, but can't help but laugh because the salty taste in his mouth is undoubtedly your own baby batter, deposited the night before. Although I didn't lol as much for this as I did for IHTSBIH, I still throughly enjoyed this book. There are a few sections that are on the more serious side, but interesting to read none the less.Its hard to judge the book and not the person and its important to distinct the two. Max has a deliberate and unique writing style. He has almost no shame, and willing to make fun of just about everything. Most people have one or two barriers that they will not cross in regards to making fun of others. Max blows those barriers up with a Howitzer, then grinds the ashes in magic bullet (the blender, not the sex toy), then drinks it. When reading him, its important to sweep your own barriers aside so you don't throw his book in a fire place when he makes jokes about Michael J Fox, mentally-challenged people, along with the plethora of fatties, crazies, etc.Its hard not to admire a man that does his own thing in spite of everyone else. Its also hard not to get ticked off at this same trait. I can't decide if I'd want to have a drink with him or passively-aggresively tick him off. (He admittedly hates that.)All in all, if you liked his other books, this is a nice way to end the trilogy. I like that it is random in chronology and keeps it interesting to finish. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Different from others *by R***B on Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2012* If you haven't read Tucker Max, don't start with this book. Go to the beginning or you will hate this book. For Tucker fans, this one is a bit different than his first two efforts. This book doesn't have the graphic bedroom scenes that contained some of his best material. Instead, it really focuses more on meeting women and insulting them relentlessly. There are some funny stories, just not quite the same.Another thing different about this book is the way Tucker rationalizes his behavior. He spends a lot of time using psychology to categorize every woman into about 5 different groups and justifies his behavior accordingly. Not bad, but I probably wouldn't take his advice too much on judging people. To be honest, I'm not sure I even take him seriously but it does make for some very funny stories though.The downsides start with price. I just don't think this is a $13 (price corrected) e-book. I bought it so that is my fault. But, I'd wait on the actual paperback. Another thing is it wastes a lot of space (to fill the book). The sexting parts were mostly funny (and very odd) but the graphics made about 1 page of text take up more than 20. The middle of the book covers the Miss Vermont episode in detail. Completely out of place for things he is known for and probably better suited for an auto-biography.Overall, very well written. The stories are funny, though there are a lot fewer than previous books. A good read for sure, just not sure it is worth the price tag. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/8473148-hilarity-ensues](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/8473148-hilarity-ensues) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
