This was a hoot. I mean it's the best Gospel I've ever read/heard. It's kind of like what you imagine the Bible would have read like if the powers-that-be actually cared to tell the truth rather than whatever version they thought would give them power over people. But I digress. This was funny...

It took me way to long to read this... especially considering how much I enjoyed it! I can't remember the last time I laughed out loud while reading, but it happened almost every page with Lamb.

I was deeply offended by this book. Christopher Moore waxes sacrilege in his book about Joshua (Jesus) and his best friend Biff. Though the book tackles many religions, there are some religions and some topics within those religions that are best left unmolested. It wouldn't hurt Moore to learn this...

May just be my favorite Christopher Moore book (though Fool would run a very close second, as well as Lust Lizard oh and I love Practical Demonkeeping...ugh, so hard to choose).I find the juxtaposition of laugh-out-loud humor with deepening heartbreak and emotion completely irresistible. Biff is eng...

aqui A Biff, o melhor amigo de infância de Jesus Cristo, é-lhe pedido que reescreva o Novo Testamento, da forma como realmente aconteceu. Na perspectiva de quem esteve lá para viver os acontecimentos na primeira pessoa. Se pensam que a Bíblia diz tudo, estão muito enganados. Isto porque não há melho...

I read this book every Easter to remind myself of the more "important things" in life around this time of year, such as pastel-colored eggs and bunny rabbits... Currently looking for a new or like new leather-bound copy that's reasonably priced.
