It's not trivia (nor trivial), but is a thoroughly fascinating book to read. Am I now qualified to practice law or give legal advice? Absolutely not!! But I do have a better understanding of the legalities of the way some issues are settled. I had a few "A-ha" moments as some aspects were clarified into something that now makes more sense to me. Yes, I also left some chapters thinking, "That is wrong and something needs to be done!" I love books (and movies) that make me think, and "The Law Says What?" gave me that.
Some parts of the book are light-hearted and fun to read, but there are also very serious sections. The mixture of entertainment and information is very well done. It will appeal to anyone with an interest in current events, politics, the Constitution, the law, and more. I definitely recommend reading it for yourself.
Disclosure: I received a copy of this book from the author for review purposes. I received no financial compensation nor was I required to give a good review. All opinions are my own.

I loved this description on the Amazon page: The Law Says What? offers a crash course on some of the most bizarre, infuriating, and vitally important legal topics of today. Using real-world cases as a guide, you’ll explore laws that affect your everyday life and analyze the rationales behind the ones that might make your head spin. Your mind will be blown and you’ll even find yourself laughing as you learn about the weird quirks of criminal law, civil law, contract law, property law, tort law, international law, and courtroom procedure.
