Boy Parts by Eliza Clark

Finished Boy Parts last night and as I put it back on the shelf I noticed the back reading:

Will make most readers howl with laughter and/or shut their eyes in horror.

GUARDIAN

Now… I read this in its entirety and… why would anyone howl with laughter at anything in this book? Maybe, if I’m being generous, snort in disbelief at the unhingedness, but howl?

You see phrases like this on books like this over and over. Am I too stuck up to be laughing at the funnies or are these blurbs written by proper psychopaths?
