Description

The average person spends about 50 billion hours on the toilet in their lifetime. Why not make the most of it?

We’ve all been there and will be back again. This very funny and actually useful guide will help you make your time in the loo more comfortable, entertaining, and even fun. Out-and-about advice includes finding and navigating public restrooms, strategies for pit stops at school, in the office, or at other people’s houses, as well as special circumstances (in a porta-potty, in the woods, in outer space). Tips for optimizing your throne room at home feature playlists, dream décor, scent-sory suggestions, get-things-moving exercises, and toilet tech explorations (flush into the future). Also featuring a Things to Do While You Poo activities section, sidebar trivia from Plungie the Plunger, and reader missions to accomplish from Agent 002, this is the must-have companion for anyone’s time behind closed doors.

I loved this read. Full of humor and great health information as well as tips and tricks on when and where to go (even apps!) high recommend as a fun book to keep in the bathroom or to give as a gift. Thank you NetGalley for this read I really enjoyed it.

I guess I was expecting something that was just humorous, but Own Your Throne is so much more.
Obviously, it's humorous too. How can you not be funny when you're talking about poop? But this book has everything: advice on what to wear so officemates don't recognize you as the office pooper, exercises to help you poop, a history of flushing, etc.
There's a lot of useful information along with interesting facts, surrounded by funny commentary. Then at the end, the author gives a plug to a charity that helps people who aren't as privileged in the pooping department. This book is excellent and well-rounded.
Thanks so much to NetGalley for letting me read this

Thank you to NetGalley for providing this ARC.
I was tempted to give this book two stars as it is about going #2 but I actually gave it four stars! This is an entertaining book about hehe pooping hehe. This would be a great book to keep in your bathroom or to give as a gift. It was just a smidge too constipated for me with the footnotes. Otherwise, it was smooth sailing and enjoyable.

Very informative and great advice for the use of public bathrooms and even bathroom at home. I will recommend this to my family and friends so they can keep it in their bathroom and read a bit while they get down to business 😂

I never imagined I would read a book about all things related to the “throne” that didn’t come from the hardware section.

This book was informative, hilarious, and at times gross which is to be expected when you’re talking about poop.

I suggest this book for anyone who wants an out of the box book that doesn’t mind repeating seeing poop all over the page.

Thank you NetGalley and Chronicle Books for the opportunity to read this book.
