Fried Convicted Rehoboth Beach Uncorked Tales from Rehoboth Beach Fay Jacobs 9781612940939 Books Reviews


  • Fay Jacobs should be in every college and university sharing these stories. I've read every book, laughed right out loud AND followed the entire history of gay rights told with love, warmth, frustration, tears and triumph by someone who didn't just witness it, but lived, fought for it and created it. Humorists from Erma Bombeck to Andy Borowitz teach us so much with their pen and their wit and Fay Jacobs is every bit their (lesser known) peer.
  • Fay is a brilliant voice for LGBTQ history and culture, uniquely poignant, funny, and informative. I learned so much from reading her book, from her insights and personal experiences that are both shocking and inspiring, and from her contagious joie de vivre. She's a story-teller poet who sees the potential for laughter in life's many weird encounters. This is an important book for everyone who wants to laugh, learn, and love.
  • Fay Jacobs will have you laughing out loud once again! Thank you Fay . Please keep them coming! Love to the House of Windsor.
  • I loved this book! Many of the essays made me laugh out loud. Very funny stuff about our every day lives. We need to laugh more!
  • 1) I loved her humorous style. Also, I think this book has great market potential for two reasons. First, it's hilarious, and second, it fits nicely in a popular and neglected genre bathroom reading. As some character (don't remember who) said in "The Big Chill," she writes the perfect length for the "average reader to read during the average crap." That is not to demean her talent. She has real skill, and in a genre that, frankly, may be the only literature that far too many people ever read.
    2) Superb!  Except for her wife's bout with cancer, I wish I had written this book!
    3) Come along for the ride—you’ll be happy you did! -- this tag line is very true!  This book was a delightful humorous (and at times, a bit somber) memoir.  I enjoyed the book from the very first, and it kept me laughing, snorting, and giggling thorough the subsequent situations and stories. I love Fay Jacob's story telling--it's on point and makes the time fly by.
  • How does Fay keep coming up with this stuff?! Her books get better and better as she continues her arc of observing, participating in and writing about life, love and living in our turbulent times. Thank goodness she keeps us laughing -- therapy we've never needed more. After a depressing day of political news, reading a chapter of Fried & Convicted at bedtime allows me to drift off to sleep with a smile. Thank you, Fay, for this gift of humor.
  • Fay Jacob's humor is a tapestry of finely woven threads of satirical, tongue-in-cheek,and laugh out loud humor, while interspersed with serious and empathetic reflections. She can find the "funny" in any life experience --- good or bad. The ability to cause spontaneous laughter in a reader is such precious gift. Thank you, Fay!
  • I laughed so hard when I read this the first time, and it gets better every time I pick it up. Insightful and delicious. Great gift for friends with a sense of humor.
