First of all, look at that cover. On second thought, if you’re afraid of spiders, cover your eyes and scroll on by. I really like it, and I don’t normally take much notice of book covers. Pictures don’t usually do much for me; I’d rather have 1000 words. But apparently I like pictures of books w...
This book was on a list from which I pull many of my reading selections. Every time I noticed this title on that list, there was always a brief pause while I speculated about it. Is John the main character? Does he in fact die at the end of the book, or at the end of something else? Is it a phys...
A fantastically misanthropic horror tale, laced with bouts of obscene and obscenely funny comedy that heightens the absurdity of the entire thing. A sort of horrific Bill & Ted for the Millennial generation. Listen, the comedy isn't going to be to everyone's tastes; I've seen many people who've di...
I am a huge fan of David Wong, ever since his first novel John Dies at the End came out a couple of years ago (and I cannot stress it enough, that this is seriously an epic read!), so there was no question of whether to read Futuristic Violence and Fancy Suits or not. It is a super entertaining, i...
A silly and very male horror-comedy along the lines of Shaun of the Dead. Some evil Lovecraftian monsters are planning to take over the world and, in fact, all of the worlds; all that stands between them are John and Dave, two small-town video-store employees. Perhaps it's the way I read it - in s...
Die Chose war mir jetzt dann doch zu wirr und sprunghaft, um mich zum Schluß durchzukämpfen. Dazu durchgängig Charaktere, die mir vollkommen egal geblieben sind. Gegen meine momentane Leseunlust müssen andere Kaliber in Stellung gebracht werden...

I haven't been so happy to finish a book in a long time. The concept is really interesting and I wanted to care but the constant penis jokes/taunts/fascination, use of the word "retarded" as a descriptor for people or situations, and, well, the author's voice and style all combined to make this a pa...
“Fred said, “Man, I think he’s gonna make a fuckin’ suit of human skin, using the best parts from each of us.”“Holy crap,” said John. “He’ll be gorgeous.” Do you like Cabin in the Woods? Keep reading - someone besides Joss Whedon GETS it. So. I finished school for the summer - didn't opt in ...
