I'll pick up PD bc you say its good and you were on the money with your Vachss recs, but BF? Meh. MEH! I say!



In all seriousness, I'm curious: what did the bookseller say to you? How did s/he hype that novel? I love Moore's stuff - Demonkeeping and Coyote Blue are favorites, all well as Fiends and A Dirty Job (his new one). I'm surprised that the humor left you cold (heh) so I have to assume that the clerk verbally masturbated to Moore's output. I personally would've been a bit more reserved in my praise - Moore reminds me more of Pratchett than Hiassen.



I've never read Prachett(Going Postal is up next though), sos I can't comment on whether Moore's style is similar to his or not, but it seemed to me a poor immitation of Hiassen's style.

As for what sales chippie said - she just went on and on for 10 minutes about how fantastic he was and how he was "the funniest writer ever" blah, blah, blah...my expectations were really high after that and they weren't met...

Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi
