My idea for a T-shirt message: Sarah Vowell went to Hawaii on vacation and wrote a book about the place, and all I got was her boring book instead of getting this cool T-shirt which I had to make myself.
Message for the back side of the T-shirt: Actually, I haven't read her latest book yet, there are just other people telling me its boring, but I was wanting her to bring me back something cool, like an artificial pineapple or a fake birth certificate.
Her latest book, "Unfamiliar Fishes", has a rating of 3.8888 on Amazon with their 1 to 5 scale, with 36 reviews.
Hmmmm, that rating of 3.8888 is comparable, and slightly better than her previous book, "The Wordy Shipmates", which got a rating of 3.75 with 161 reviews.
Oh, I actually did the rating calculations myself because Amazon has them rounded off to zero places, so both books are a "4". You just have to perform a weighted average of the customer review data, which is available in a cute little chart with horizontal yellow bars.
At least I now know what to ask for my next birthday present, because I think I have a complete collection of her previous books. Somewhere.
Actually, I messed up the title, because I didn't include her middle or last names. Since her middle name is 'Jane', Sarah Jane Vowell's vowels are "AAAEO&E". If your question is, "Did you really write this just so you could have a sentence with the homonyms 'Vowell's vowels' in it?", the answer is "maybe maybe".
