This was absolutely bonkers and I really enjoyed it. I had a long car journey as a passenger and this made the time fly by. The story was crazy and the narrator was amazing, all the vocal nuances were brilliant.

Guy who has only read The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka, reading his second book: Getting a lot of 'The Metamorphosis' vibes from this...

It's literally about what the title and the blurb say. Nothing more, nothing less. I expected something more in line with the other books in the series - but instead of weird horror, I found a (bad) comedy set in an office.

I had issues with the female character as well - just as I did the other times I read books by the same author. However this time my younger brother was in the car with me while I listened to the audiobook, and he said "this whole thing reeks of incel". When I asked for explanations, he said he didn't know wheter it was only the main character who was supposed to sound like this, as the narrating voice, or if it was the author himself behind it who couldn't tell what he was writing. It was the only time I laughed the whole duration of the book.

So I don't think the whole "romantic" aspect was necessary - but if the romance was supposed to be an important piece of the story, if the female love interest was supposed to love the main character no matter what he looks like or whatever it is you're searching for in your life, you should have shown me the love, not told me of it. I can't see what's not there no matter how you point it at me.

Nice narration, as usual, but apparently not enough to make me interested in the story.

Hilarious take on Fight Club. Loved the MC and other characters. Great humor In the writing and very unique story.
Thank you to @netgalley and the publisher for an AudioARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.

The synopsis had me hooked when all it said was a man who became his bathroom. I don't know what I was expecting but it wasn't something this hilarious. I love weird books, but this was more than I could have ever wished for. It is well written and an engaging story. I cannot wait to read more from this series. I laughed so hard especially at the medical bill part $465 for chit chat. HILARIOUS! My side still hurts from laughing "I'm not in a f***ing fight club Karl". This will be on my reread list.

5 stars

The most bizarrest book I have read/ listened to so far this year or maybe ever but I loved it and it works! One of the coolest thing I’ve found is, it’s part of a series so I shall hunt the others out and I can’t wait!

Well, it was certainly very different! Definitely not my usual genre and I feel it is suited to a niche audience that I'm not a part of! That said, it is weird and whacky, extremely creative and very amusing in parts. Basically a man turns into his bathroom, literally! The tone of the narrator was perfect for the book and if you are looking for something outside of your comfort zone that will make you laugh and also think a little about identity then give it a whirl!
I am grateful to Netgalley and the publishers for an advanced listener copy of this book.

I was looking forward to this one, thinking it'd be some bizzaro fiction, but it certainly missed the mark and could have gone into more detail about the transformation.

William Pauley III is one of most interesting writers I've ever discovered and I've fallen in love with everything he's done. Connor Brannigan is the perfect narrator. His voice suits Pauley's writing so well.

I received the audiobook version of this story thanks to NetGalley

As always, the narrator was awesome

This is the third story I have consumed of the Bedlam Bible series. The first being the Tower and my second being The Astronaut Dream Book.

I feel that this story benefited from not being a short story collection as the others were previously. It was still very wacky, and I didn’t know where the next turn was going to lead.

This book solved one of my biggest issues with the first books, which was the ending. I felt like this was wrapped up very nicely.

This book also had some elements of humor which I thought was nice.

Hilariously twisted horror love story.

The narrator of this book is absolutely excellent!

This was my first Bedlam Bible story and I can’t wait to read/listen to them all!

This was a very enjoyable book to listen on audiobook. I love This was a very enjoyable book to listen on audiobook. I love where this author takes us in his books. This is a story of a man who turns into bathroom fixtures. He has a love interest at work and a friend who thinks he is in a fight club as he comes to work to cover the pipes and faucets , etc coming from his body. As he tries to hide it, it disrupts everything at work. It’s very humorous and bizarre at the same time. I continue to love the writing of William Pauley III and the narrator Connor Brannigan brings the characters to live. If you want a fun quick read in horror you need to read this book. where this author takes us in his books. This is a story of a man who turns into bathroom fixtures.

I wish to thank NetGalley and Doom Fiction Audio for the audio book of Fight Tub in exchange for my honest review.

This was the first book I've read by William Pauley III. It was so ridiculous with a core of real social commentary. I enjoyed it, it was short so I finished in an afternoon. I enjoy a quick ridiculous romp and this hit the mark! I'd like to read other books in this series.

Palahniuk meets Kafka- My first Bizarro read, certainly not my last.

I was unsure what to expect going in, I was slightly under the impression Bizzaro was the next step after extreme horror, the most depraved of the depraved, and maybe that is true in some cases, however, Fight Tub, which did have some horror elements wasnt that. It was a surprisingly delightful and laugh-out-loud hilarious novella that would appeal to many genres of readers ready for a good time. The narrator Connor Brannigan was expressive and engaging enhancing the writing style, plot, and characters of the book
Pun-filled and utterly ridiculous, the situations faced mirror real life and felt refreshingly relatable and on the nose. For such a silly storyline was truly rooting for the main character!

Thank you to NetGalley, Doom Fiction, and William Pauley III for introducing me to a brand new genre that I truly enjoyed, in exchange for my honest review.

Yet another weird story from the eighth block and another story I couldn't get enough of. At this point anything William Pauley III writes will probably be a 5 star from me. I don't know how he does it, but my mind is always blown when reading his books. lol

I didn't know if I would like Fight Tub at first, but as the story progressed it reminded me of a mix, of Clark from National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation with the way he acted and how his boss treated him, and Milton from Office Space as his trusty sidekick. lol By the end of the story I was cracking up so much, and yet was so disgusted too. It was amazing. LOL Also the revelation of Layla had me screaming "no way." You will have to read the previous book to get it but man I was stunned for a few minutes after that.

Now I'm on to the next book. I think there are only two left in the series and I don't know how I feel about that. LOL

The Bedlam Bible series is my current obsession. I LOVE the audio versions for a quick pick-me-up read in between my longer novels.
As completely absurd as these stores can be, they are totally captivating and I can’t get enough.
A dude literally turning into his bathroom. Seriously 🚽

I am not sure why anyone wants to live or work in Tower 8. The cops won't respond to calls and everyone has known this fact across all of the books in this series. This book was even weirder than the first three books in the series. Are the characters hallucinating or actually changing into something else and their coworkers are so oblivious that they truly don't see it? Already read book #5, The Ballad of Old Joe Booth, so now I am off to read book #6, Holus Bolus.

I love Connor Brannigan's voice and I look forward to finding more audiobooks read by Connor in the future.

Thank you NetGalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review. This is the fourth book in The Bedlam Bible series. This story was so freaky and unsettling and had such an amazing climax. This is such a great series!

This book was absolutely delight. The pacing was really well done. It was also so strange and bizarre. Definitely going to be reading more from this author.

This was everything I didn’t know I needed. Now that I’ve had it… I don’t necessarily want more.
Fight tub is exactly what the title says with a bit more blood.
William- I’m not sure what’s rolling around in your head but I sure hope there are more title like this in your future. Storytelling was A+

As much as I tried I just could not get into this book. I wanted to listen to it based on reviews I have seen from others. Maybe I can try again in the future but at this moment I had to DNF it. Thank you netgalley for allowing me this arc in return for an honest review.
