I didn't hate this book. But I didn't enjoy it and I wouldn't say it's "okay". I read it. I finished it. I still am not quite sure what the hell happened in any of the book. Just not for me. It never clicked with me. I never cared about the characters. The main reasons I did finish it were because I...
I think I have a new favourite book.Let's start again.I'm a fairly avid reader of Cracked.com, it's my favourite comedy website. But the funny thing is I never check to see who wrote what articles. I prefer to think of Cracked as a faceless pool of hilarity. I don't want to get to know the columnist...
Four and a half star for this random yet oddly coherent story, about otherworldly infestation and super ordinary heroes chosen by the soya sauce. Everything is explained in the end. Sort of. This book is funny, if you aren't some misery monger.
What do you get when you cross Christopher Moore's writing style with Burrough's Naked Lunch? You get Wong's book John Dies at the End! When I first saw horror and humour mixed together I said “Sign me up!” I was an avid horror reader but all the books started to blur and then became too gore soake...
Very, very funny. Not terribly coherent. But funny! I didn't feel like there was a real sustained plotline - and what was there kept getting lost in all the Lovecraft - ian descriptions. If Lovecraft had been a pan of feces humor, which I don't recall as being the case. I had a hard time gettin...
I'd probably give the story itself a 3.5 rating, but I'm bumping the overall score to 4 because some parts are just so absurdly funny.This book is not necessarily for the faint of heart. It seems like a smash-up of teen horror flicks (and all their grossness, from juvenile humor to creeping levels o...
Rumor has it that David Wong was conceived during the making of David Cronenberg's film adaptation of Naked Lunch. Allegedly, William S. Burroughs impregnated Cronenberg with mugwump juice and nine months later Wong was shat out into a public toilet and abandoned. Wong's first novel, although struct...
This was a surprisingly quick read despite its length. The story is no masterpiece but it's pretty entertaining for what it is: dumb fun. And I'm no horror aficionado, but I felt disturbed enough times to call this book a success in that regard as well.Perhaps I would have enjoyed this book more if ...
