This book could have been so good but the liberal use of f-bombs and incessant cries for the main character to get laid made the book read like it was for a pre-pubescent male. I just couldn't finish it even though I wanted to know how the actual plot wrapped up. When the main character started to h...

It's Christopher Moore. He makes me laugh, and since this bookclub happens to fall the day after my 31st birthday...
