Jim Smith is the king of comedy and the lord of laughter. No other book series is as funny as Barry Loser. I've never read a mystery as funny as this one. If you love to laugh then read this book or any others by Jim Smith. I just hope Bunky is not literally cut in half though.

I liked it when Bunky was in a leotard! Also when Barry discovers who is the air-freshner thief!

I liked this book, it was very funny and I enjoyed it even though I tend to enjoy adventure books more.

I loved it. My favourite bit was when Barry Loser wanted to kill his friend Bunky for ruining the last carton of the best drink ever and blaming him.

I love Bunky because he was funny. It was a fantastic story, Barry and his friends had a good adventure trying to find out who crumpled the carton of Beryl. I would recommend it for anyone who would like a laugh!
