Bad Monkey Book Reviews
Bad Monkey by Carl Hiaasen Book Summary
A wickedly funny novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Squeeze Me in which the greedy, the corrupt, and the degraders of what’s left of pristine Florida—now, of the Bahamas as well—get their comeuppance.
“[A] comedic marvel … [Hiaasen] hasn’t written a novel this funny since Skinny Dip.”—The New York Times
Andrew Yancy—late of the Miami Police and soon-to-be-late of the Monroe County sheriff’s office—has a human arm in his freezer. There’s a logical (Hiaasenian) explanation for that, but not for how and why it parted from its shadowy owner. Yancy thinks the boating-accident/shark-luncheon explanation is full of holes, and if he can prove murder, the sheriff might rescue him from his grisly Health Inspector gig (it’s not called the roach patrol for nothing). But first—this being Hiaasen country—Yancy must negotiate an obstacle course of wildly unpredictable events with a crew of even more wildly unpredictable characters, including his just-ex lover, a hot-blooded fugitive from Kansas; the twitchy widow of the frozen arm; two avariciously optimistic real-estate speculators; the Bahamian voodoo witch known as the Dragon Queen, whose suitors are blinded unto death by her peculiar charms; Yancy’s new true love, a kinky coroner; and the eponymous bad monkey, who with hilarious aplomb earns his place among Carl Hiaasen’s greatest characters.

Bad monkey. Most entertaining and as good as sick puppy
Decent but not Great. Unlike his other books this one made me chuckle from time to time but it wasn't as funny as his earlier books. The plot is fine but the dialogue which gave his older books the charm and bust out laughter is missing. Just another summer book.
Great again. Great Carl. Got a little long at the end.
Mind numbingly boring. Can't believe Hiasen wrote this. Neither funny nor entertaining.
Bad Monket. For most writers, this would be an amusing novel. For Hiassen it was disappointing. Not quite phoning it in but close
Bad Monkey. Absurd depiction of Key West. Quite tiring and childish. Moronic and unfunny. It's as if he was tossed out of a bar or restaurant or two and couldn't get over it. The one positive - surely he'll never return......
Bad Monkey. Carl at his best. Great, entertaining read.
Another fun novel. Not much more can be said than what I’ve written about his other books. So well written. My wife smiles when she hears me laughing.
Great read. Like all of his books, it was a fast fun read. Loved the main character.
Great read yet again!. Slow moving at first by stay in there, it’s a fun read!
Bad Monkey. Loved this book. Very funny and fast paced. Loved Yancy the main character. I'd recommend it 100% !!
Bad Monkey. Big belly laughs! Great story
Vintage. This is our favorite writer taking the craft to the top shelf! Brilliant is all.
No Warning the frozen arm was used IBOOKS REFUND!. The book is a mystery and involves a persons arm in a freezer yes as noted in the ad said nothing about the arm used for sexual favors post mortum rigger mortis as an attribute. DISGUSTING!!!! Not warned REMOVED THIS PURCHASE!!!!
Bad monkey. Another thriller in south florida by the miami herald's own Carl hiaasen. A lot of of funny subplots. At least all the good guys lived happily ever, at least through the last chapter. Couldn't put the ebook down.
Great jun. I totally enjoyed his book. Funny yet manages to have characterizes that keep your interest. My first by this author and I plan to read more. I generally don't read detective/crime solving fiction, but enjoyed this one.
Who else.... ...would put nicoderm on a monkey? 5 stars!
Awesomely entertaining. Great book, which exceeded my high expectations based on the recommendation. I usually have plots figured out very early into a book. However I was so invested in the characters I didn't care to think any further ahead than the page I was on. Highly recommend.
Funny & enlightening. Absolutely hilarious-typical Hiassen, keeps you giggling well after, plus a great reveal on fraud in medicare/medicaid.
Bad Monkey. Highly agreeable farcical gruesome goings on in Key West, Miami and points Caribbean. Tom Sharpe with palm trees. Cynical and funny, with seemingly every twist and turn recapitulated at the head of each new chapter--for the distracted iPhone reader?
Bad Monkey. After reading an article about the book and the author in Garden & Gun, I really wanted to enjoy this book, but didn't.
Bad Book. Stopped reading after reading 3/4 of book. It's all over the place. Did not like any characters and did not care how story ended. Very disappointed I spent so much time on this.
Not good. Worst CH book ever. Not funny and not interesting.
Stick with it. I thought this started a bit slow compared to some of Hiaasen's other books but once it found its rhythm it was spot on chuckle out loud.
Always entertaining!. The characters are awesome and story had lots of twists & turns keeping me plenty entertained. Only downside is Skink never made an appearance.
Hiaasen Being Hiaasen. Thoroughly enjoyed it. The best Hiaasen book since Skinny Dip.
Bad Monkey. What an enjoyable read; James Lee Burke with a delightful sense of humor.
Bad Monkey. My first experience with Mr. Hiaasen will not be the last. Terribly imaginative with characters worthy of Elmore Leonard. Bring on the next!
Bad Monkey. I'm a big fan of Hiassen but this is a very sub-par effort. Not worth the money.
Bad Monkey. It's been a while since Carl Hiasson turned out a light funny cop story. Heard him on NPR and bought it. It was fun and easy to read. Great Florida grown characters as usual.
