    The 7 Habits of Highly Defective People: And Other Bestsellers That Won't Go Away

    Written by Cathy Crimmins

    Narrated by Cathy Crimmins

    ()

    About this audiobook

    Better than CliffsNotes, funnier than Monarch Notes, and shorter than the originals—comes a hilarious spoof of the blockbuster hits you love, not to mention many books you've come to despise. From the authors of the bestselling Newt Gingrich's Bedtime Stories for Orphans is a parody that lampoons all the popular books you'd ever want to read—or not!

    Included are:

    "The Fridges of Marin County": A hip California housewife finds brief happiness in the arms of an Iowa refrigerator.
    "Embarrassed by the Light": A guide for people who are self-conscious about near-death experiences.
    "A Year in Pompeii": Fond pre-Vesuvius anecdotes and recollections.
    "Iron Tom": Help your neutered cat regain his masculinity.
    "The 7 Habits of Highly Defective People": Annoying strategies for getting what you want.
    "Listening to Pringles": A psychologist/grocer chronicles his experience in treating depressive patients with prescription junk food.

    And more!
