The show is hilarious, packed with laughter and oohs and aahs and even moments when I break a bit. When a friend bought this book for me as a birthday present, I dug into it impatiently and reveled in every moment. It is out of the question to enjoy this book. The only answer was to eat every page insatiably and then feel sorry for myself when I got to the end and found that there would be no more laughs and fun tidbits that only add to the story. PAWNEE: GREATEST TOWN IN AMERICA is the perfect companion to the show, which is so perfect in so many ways. So so and so! PAWNEE includes characters from the show with back stories about the city that we have never seen or heard before, such as historical information about Pawnee's founding in a guide to the city's restaurants and famous raccoon-infested parks. While I don't at all read television or film binding outside of books about making a movie through LORD OF RINGS or ALIENS (my favorite movie ever, just saying), I was drooling over the opportunity to read this book. If you're a fan of parks and recreation, believe me - you need this book. You just need this book, and really, that's all I can say about this book. And if you haven't seen parks and recreation, go buy a month worth Of Netflix and watch the first few seasons. Fall in love with Pawne and the characters. And then buy this book and fall in love with it. VERDICT: While focused on experienced parks and recreation fans, this book is a die-hard fan of the new best friend, combining the view from the show and the new information you need to know! He's a great companion. The author is a librarything.com client. Helpful? December 31, 2015Pawnee: The greatest city in America is the perfect compliment to parks and recreation, which says a lot, as I feel Parks and Rec is one of the greatest shows in recent history. Written in the same style as the show, featuring guest segments of each member of the wonderful Pawn Department. If only local government everywhere could be filled with people like Leslie Knope and her team. This should be the best TV tie-in I've ever read with John Winchester's Supernatural magazine. On the show, Leslie wrote this book because of her love for her hometown of Pawney, Indiana, warts and all. And seeing her devotion to the quaint history of this city, along with her remarkable precision (which she boasts several times). Reading this, I really started to miss the parks and recreation. Maybe it's time to rewatch the entire series. Maybe past time ... The author is a librarything.com client. Helpful? July 7, 2015This book was terrific.

It has a section that Raul from Venezuela wrote about his time in Pawne. But before that, when Leslie introduced him, she said: What do Sarajevo, Krakow, Pyongyang, Kinshasa and Borakua, Venezuela have in common? Yes, they are all places of unimaginable tragedy, war and/or ethnic cleansing (p. 175). She then has a footnote that says: N.B. that all these cities were chosen long before tragedies/wars/ethnic cleansing took place. Just bad luck (p. 175). In Raoul's section, he mentions: Cities around the world (Wuhan, China and Minas, Uruguay, for example) respect our pride (p. 175). It's pretty funny! This book was made before the coronavirus happened! So after Leslie mentions how all the Pawnees of the Twin Cities had horrible things happening in them, Raoul mentions Wuhan, China is one of its twin cities. I find it quite amusing.

Since the show began in 2009, the city's colourful history and were a joke or focal point for many episodes. Pawney's review is as a typical midsize city in southern Indiana, located in the fictional Wamapoke County about 90 miles from Indianapolis. Dialogue with the show and other officially licensed materials offer a population ranging from 60,000 to just over 80,000. (note 1) Pawney's fictional story begins with its founding in 1817, which was soon followed by the driving of the Wamamapoke Native American tribe from the ground. The city is depicted as having an extensive history of abuse of the people of Wamapoke and misogyny, which it celebrates in various murals on the walls at City Hall. Pawne's twin city is Eagleton, Indiana, a smaller but more affluent neighborhood. Eagleton was founded by the richest original Pawne settlers who moved uphill shortly after the creation of Pawne to found their own city. Since then, mutual animosity has been ged between communities. However, in the Pawnee-Eagleton Tip Off Classic, due to the impending bankruptcy of Eagleton (caused by excessive overspending on luxury amenities for Eagleton residents), Eagleton dissolves and is included in Pawnee. Pawne is said to be in Indiana's 10th congressional district, which has actually been out of date since 2003.
