"This picaresque slideshow definitely has its ear to the ground for the weird, wacky, and wonderful that is now our peninsula’s chief cash crop. If you’re looking for the outer orbits of America, come to Florida, and if you seek the Sunshine State’s funky-drumbeat fringe, you can do no better than Lynn Waddell."--Tim Dorsey, New York Times best-selling author

"Best Journey Into Florida's Underbelly" --Creative Loafing Tampa

One of "The Best Non-Fiction Books of 2013" --Colette Bancroft, Tampa Bay Times

"Waddell takes readers to Florida’s wild side, where strippers, swingers, bikers, exotic animals, and carnies enjoy sun-kissed lives in America’s strangest state."--Trevor Aaronson, author of The Terror Factory: Inside the FBI’s Manufactured War on Terrorism

"Lynn Waddell’s riveting you-are-there reporting lives at the intersection where Florida’s wacky subcultures and seamy undersides meet up.
