NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the bestselling author of Squeeze Me comes a wildly entertaining Florida caper—a razor-sharp send-up of modern American life, packed with misfits and mayhem.

“No satirist arrived at our dystopian moment better prepared than Carl Hiaasen.Slate

“[Carl Hiaasen’s] reality with a side of escapism is a blessing for our fragile minds at this time.” —Samantha Irby in The Atlantic


Welcome to Fever Beach, where the sun blazes, the politics are unhinged, and the characters are as volatile as a summer storm.

Dale Figgo is a half-baked crusader with the rare distinction of being kicked out of the Proud Boys—for being too dumb. His latest bad decision? Picking up a hitchhiker on a rainy afternoon while running an errand.

That errand sets off a chain reaction involving Viva Morales, a clever, resilient newcomer trying to rebuild her life post-divorce. She’s renting a room in Figgo’s apartment and working at the Mink Foundation—a philanthropic front with something far darker beneath the surface.

Circling them is Twilly Spree, a hotheaded environmentalist with too much cash and a gift for over-the-top revenge.

When dark money and twisted motives bring their worlds crashing together, Viva and Twilly become unlikely allies. Together, they uncover a tangle of corruption and conspiracy led by a plastic-surgery-loving billionaire couple and a clueless congressman with delusions of grandeur.

In his most outrageous and deliciously funny novel yet, Hiaasen delivers a gleefully chaotic portrait of contemporary madness.

Good but not as funny as classic 1990s Carl H. It’s like a too sweet dessert you used to love when younger but now you just don’t have the taste buds for it anymore.

Almost too much

This is ok. It might be my least favourite of his books, but it’s still a quick fun read. I didn’t enjoy this narrator very much but again, the book is quick.

I like all the references to my blah every day life. Wordle, Metallica the beach.

Fun read

Having lived in south Florida for over 20 years, I always appreciate the reality and depth of characters in Hiassen’s novels. I hope Fever Beach becomes a miniseries or a movie, I’d watch immediately!

Another fantastic novel by this brilliant and funny author!
