Nature Girl is a Little Twisted

Date of Review:  Jan 25, 2007
The Bottom Line: I have read better but it held my attention.
Review: When my sister asked me what I wanted for Christmas this year I told her that I really liked books that have a little bit of mystery mixed in with a little bit of humor. When I opened my gift from her this Christmas I was thrilled to see that she...

Carl Hiaasen (Sadly) Sinks His Boat With This One

Date of Review:  Nov 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: Steer you boat around this one.
Review: There are few things I have loved better than opening up a new Carl Hiaasen book and laughing along as he takes us on a journey through a story about the world of some South Florida criminal or other dubious activity usually mixed in with an...

Carl Hiaasen's Nature Girl Doesn't Impress this Nature Girl!

Date of Review:  Dec 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: Carl Hiaasen's Nature Girl is a tangled mess of plots and sublots.  It had entertaining and funny moments, but it wasn't that good.
Review: With a background in park & resource conservation and environmental education, Carl Hiaasen's books have sounded appealing to me.  I very much enjoyed Hoot and Flush (for younger readers) as well as some of his other books like "Skinny Dip".  I...

Nature Girl by Carl Hiaasen

Date of Review:  Nov 28, 2006
The Bottom Line: Not the greatest of Hiaasen's work with a scarcely believable storyline that relies too much on slapstick.
Review: Like the majority of Carl Hiaasen's books, Nature Girl is a humorous story set in Florida and featuring a cast of off-kilter characters who are thrown together in the wildest of circumstances. Long time fans of his brand of zaniness will appreciate...

Carl Hiaasen's Nature Girl was a disappointment

Date of Review:  Apr 3, 2008
The Bottom Line: Read Skinny Dip or Tourist Season instead.
Review: Have you ever gotten halfway through a book and realized you just didn't like what you were reading? You haven't connected with the story or any of the characters, and you aren't even all that entertained? That's how I felt while reading Nature...

Much ado about nothing!

Date of Review:  Jul 19, 2009
The Bottom Line: You're going to have to read it yourself to make up your own mind. It definitely worked for me and I'm going to look up more of his work.
Review: If someone told me that there was such a thing as Seminole peyote buds and then went on to suggest that Carl Hiassen was chewing a few too many of them when he dreamed up the screwball plot of "Nature Girl" ... well, there's no doubt in my mind. I'd...

Another hit from Hiaasen

Date of Review:  Mar 15, 2007
Review: When I first found out that this book was coming out, (on one of the coming soon previews) I was EXCITED. I was lucky enough to pick up a used copy two days after its release and read it that same night. Stayed up late to finish it and found it very...

A Crazy at Every Turn

Date of Review:  Oct 4, 2009
Review:   If you haven't been introduced to Carl Hiaasen and his endless cast of crazy, often incompetent and purely Florida characters, then "Nature Girl" is as good a place as any to start.   Like most of his other humorous works, "Nature Girl" has a...
