If you're familiar with Twitter, then chances are you've come across Justin Halpern and his brutally brilliant father. Following the current trend of "viral blog = published book", Halpern now offers his father's witticism in the archaic format we all love and cherish. However, in Sh*t my Dad Says Justin Halpern takes a step beyond the quips and develops a story as he shares his experiences with his father. The volume includes not only the quotes we have come to know and love, but developed recollections of poignant events in their relationship. Sam Halpern becomes for the reader the flesh and blood man that Justin Halpern so obviously adores, and both will leave you with a smile on your face.
