Aliens, giant chicken monsters, vampires and a mad scientist. Just another day in Imaginary City.
The signs are all there. Something big is happening. Something not very good. It's up to Matthew Doorkey to find out what's going on and put a stop to it. With the help of a vampire with a cheese fixation, a slightly deranged but world-renowned author, a man who shares his body with an alien, a Hero who has just discovered his superhuman powers and a Villain bent on world conquest, Matthew sets out to find the truth and save his city from an unknown evil. Or at the very least, to get laid.

If character names like Stupidman, Idiotboy, Lord Badguy, Dr. Doctor, and Larry are character names that instantly pique your attention, this may very well be the book for you. As the goofy title and author pseudonym suggest, this book is filled with goofy little jokes that attempt to tickle the reader as it continues down its simple path of good vs. bad. Oh, well, actually, maybe it's not that simple. In fact...maybe Stupidman isn't quite as good as we initially thought....Kename's goofy romp in the world of superheroes takes a look at many of the items that are considered standards in the superhero realm and turns up the stupid. The characters in this book are constantly surrounded by a haze of stupidity as they attempt to bumble their way through the basic plot that is provided. The only sense of sanity we get amid this crazed bubble of characterized humanity is in the character of Idiotboy who seems to not only be able to actually see what's truly going on, like, "hey, that guy is going to attack us now" or "you're looking the wrong way", but also has a few moments where he appears to be the only person in the troupe with superpowers, as he has a few moments of possible precognition. But he's overlooked. That's the joke. He could have saved the day countless times, but no one pays attention to him.
Little jokes like that are littered across the text of this book, making this less about plot as it is about humor. And for some it may work well, for me, this type of humor just didn't quite work for me. In fact, I had to check a number of times to see if this was intended to be a children's book, as the simplicity of the humor seemed much more suited for 10 and under than an adult audience.
Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that's the intention...but that doesn't mean that this couldn't be a fun little read for those who are just starting out on the reading path. I think there might have been a few words that might need to be overlooked, but I honestly don't think there were...and there are a few hints at some demonology, but nothing dark...much lighter than many of the more popular mainstream titles of today.
Overall, I wouldn't suggest this for someone looking for anything too clever or original, but if you're looking for something silly and dumb to while away some time, this may just been the book for you.

A Life in the Day of Utter Nonsense edition by Faye Kename Humor Entertainment eBooks Reviews
I love this book. I’m usually a very quiet reader, even if a book is rib-crackingly funny. Reading this book, I laughed out loud. Which got me lots of odd glances, since I was reading it on the bus. All I say is ‘pwetty pwincess’. You’ll have to find out for yourself what I mean.
This book is for you if you like good old fashioned British humour. From page one the reader is drawn into a ridiculous saga that is side-crackingly funny throughout. Each character is deliciously silly and breathes life into the nonsense that is their every day living. Every character gives a greater depth of stupidity to ridiculous situations and it is impossible to ignore the laughter that just aches to be let free of the reader! We, the readers, are often left wondering who the villains really are and just who gave the interpretation of good guys...the answers are always there looking directly into the face that is a Life in the Day of Utter Nonsense.
This book came a very well earned and deserved 42 of top 50 indie books 2014
I have no hesitation in recommending this book to anyone that has a sense of humour that likes to be twisted round and about
When I say this story has everything, I'm not kidding Assassins, Mad scientists, Witches, Pirates, Vampires, Super or not so Super-heroes, Secret agents and many more – all living on the same street. It is quite a bizarre story as the title suggests, but makes some sense once you get into it.
I read it imagining Spike Milligan was reading it aloud to a group of chuckling youngsters – not purposely – it just came across that way, but it isn't for youngsters as you'll discover.
When a title suggested the author was high on Caffeine, I wondered if that was all she was high on. Her imagination seems to be spinning almost out of control. This is a fast story. You won't find any boring bits.
Bouts of humour and thought provoking quirks will have you smiling and pondering while trying to keep a grip on what's going on. Things like – Why vampires are so well groomed when they can't see their reflection in a mirror. I'd never thought about that before.
This book had me totally entertained throughout. I didn't notice any flaws in editing or formatting.
It nearly got five stars and would have if the author had taken more time and thought when choosing character names.
