Mr. Book just finished Welcome to Pawnee: Stories of Friendship, Waffles and Parks and Recreation, by Jim O’Heir.

I made the mistake of never seeing Parks and Recreation when it was on the air, but I got caught up by binge watching it during the COVID pandemic. So I was unaware of the backstory about how the story originated and the casting stories. I enjoyed reading about them in this book.

But, unfortunately, the book as a whole was too inconsistent. There was a bunch of stories that I enjoyed, but also many that just weren’t that interesting.

I give this book a B. Goodreads and NetGalley require grades on a 1-5 star system. In my personal conversion system, a B equates to 3 stars. (A or A+: 5 stars, B+: 4 stars, B: 3 stars, C: 2 stars, D or F: 1 star).
