Duncan Delaney and the Cadillac of Doom
A. L. Haskett
Jonlin Books, 2000
A.L. Haskett - Can't wait for your next one!
+ Absolutely amazing.
+ An outstanding story
I recieved this book as gift from a family member who I had introduced to Christopher Moore. To her credit she found this gem that C. Moore had recommended.
And they were both right on target. What a rollicking, page turning read.
A budding painter ventures to LA and finds subjects and ...

Flowers in the Attic (Dollanganger)
V.C. Andrews, 2005
my favorite book
+ My guilty pleasure
Yes its true, this book is extremely dark and twisted, depressing, gross at certain parts (incest seems to be a common theme V.C.'s books), and just downright disturbing and creepy. But as horrified as you may be while reading it, you also can't but be fascinated at the same time. To even think ...

The Menstruating Mall
Carlton Mellick III
Afterbirth Books, 2005
Fun, satirical, read
+ Read this instead of Stephen King
+ One of Mellick's best
I read this book in between my college classes. It is fast paced and fun to read and made me laugh out loud about a dozen times. The characters are hilariously stereotypical but definitely that way by design. This book has definitely surreal moments and circumstances, as the title mentions, the ...

Villa Incognito
Tom Robbins
Bantam, 2004
A polarizing book.
It seems to me that Tom Robbins books are hit or miss. This book is one of the more polarizing titles. However, I think its gotten a bad rap. Considerably shroter than most of his books, I think its enjoyable as a quick read. I guess some people want and expect something longer from Robbins.

Pussy, King of the Pirates (Acker, Kathy)
Kathy Acker
Grove Press, 1996
the best Acker
+ Brilliant!
Kathy Acker is, in my opinion, the best avant-garde author who ever existed, and "Pussy King of Pirates" is her greatest work--topping even "Empire of the Senseless"--which is too bad that it was her last. following the exploits of girls seeking treasure, Pirate girls, and surreal avatars of ...

Unadulterated Cat
Terry Pratchett
Orion (an Imprint of The Orion Publishing Group Ltd ), 2002
Even cat haters will probably love this book.
+ Great book for cat lovers and Terry Pratchett fans
I'm amazed that there are any people out there who don't love this book. Pratchett, the funniest writer in English of the past century (even considering Wodehouse), takes on the orneriest species of the planet. Because it's a little coffee-table book, of course it won't have the depth and span of ...
