Here are some recent blurbs for The Beard:
"Okay at best." -Anonymous
"Loved it. If Holden Caulfield rented a timeshare in Vegas, only to find out he double booked with Hunter Thompson, and then they both sat down over a buffet of mind-altering drugs and wrote a book, I THINK it might be something like THE BEARD.
BEHOLD THE POWER OF FACIAL HAIR." -Nathaniel Lambert, co-author of Sideshow PI: The Devil's Garden (I highly recommend this, by the way)
"This book would make an excellent introduction to the world of Bizarro fiction." -Chris B., Goodreads
"...this quirkiness can be irritating, and if it was much longer I’d undoubtedly be infuriated by how ‘whacky’ it all is." -F.R.J., Goodreads
"It's like eating a creativity sandwich." -Daniel Clausen, author of The Lexical Funk
"I read this book backwards." -Jasmine, Goodreads
"Sure to please any fan of weird fiction." -Grant Wamack
"I can't help feeling cheated by its shallowness." -Tortla, Goodreads
"I loved this book. I loved its feel, its pace, and its imagery." -Lucas Thorn, Lateral Obsessions
"I have no time to waste on books that seem a chore to get through. Absolutely not recommended." -K.G., Amazon Reviewer

I'm excited to have one of my comments elevated to "blurb"status.
Well, I would say you're in "mixed comapany".
Ha! I adore that you included the negative reviews. It's like a friendly reminder that everything is subjective and anyone who says their product will please everybody is knowingly presenting a bona fide five-dollar foot long of Lie on Rye.
Variety is indeed the spice of life.
Good on you for posting both types of reviews. That takes guts!
