I do believe I am turning (have turned) into a book snob. With a few exceptions here and there, I find myself more frequently eschewing contemporary forms of fiction, and leaning towards the Literary Fiction genre, which I feel somewhat uncomfortable and conflicted about, seeing as how I don’t have...
Funny, but not my brand of humor (shock value, stereotypes, and bordering on offensive). Maybe if I were another nationality I wouldn't have bristled at certain wisecracks.

Reading this book is like eating a big rich chocolate cake – that’s attached to the mains supply. It’s tasty and wonderful but you keep getting majorly unpleasant electric shocks that ruin the whole experience. Charlie Asher is a beta male, unassuming, snarky, wildly amusing second hand shop owner ...
