Zombie Tits, Astronaut Fish and Other Weird Animals

So I completely forgot I had this in my TBR, but it surfaced to the top of the list recently when I did TBR roulette, so I figured I'd give it a shot. And well... It's not quite as fun as I thought it would be. Don't get mer wrong: the science is clearly solid and the animals featured are indeed worthy of being labeled “weird”, but I'm just not fond of the framing device used in this book, which I think was supposed to make everything even more interesting and funny and put it all in context for people who aren't very much into science, but I personally think it falls flat. Of course that could just be my sense of humour not really jibing with the author's, so YMMV for sure, but I still didn't think it was very funny. I also think that this was a compilation of online articles written by the author, so maybe that framing narrative may actually work in the context of a blog but they don't really work in the context of a book with a sustained narrative.
