Well I am once again surviving on minimal sleep because I couldn't put a book down, I am so glad it is the summer holidays! T J Klune is such a funny writer, I'm sure my husband thought I'd finally lost the plot as I sat there reading and creasing up, he was certainly throwing me lots of odd looks.I...
I can’t really put my finger on why I didn’t DNF this book at some point. Insanely, my tolerance for bad writing seems to increase with each m/m book I read. But 1 and 2-star reviews are more fun anyways. Here it comes...- First things first: who in his right mind approved the mind numbing cover? I ...
I'm not sure how to rate this. It was funny, but I thought Paul rambled too much, and could he ever finish a thought?! This book would have been great if it had been a little bit shorter with less of Paul rambling on.
There were some cute moments. I even found myself chuckling a few times. But it wasn't enough for me to ignore the nonstop OTT moments. Nonstop, I tell you. When I could tell a scene was turning into a series of ridiculous events and silly dialogue, I skimmed. So, I skimmed a lot in this book.I don'...
There was certainly nothing 'meh' about this book. It had aspects I both loved and really fucking hated. Pros:I swear I nearly wet myself laughing in some places. I do have a sarcastic kind of sense of humour so I got Paul.Vince. I just really loved him.Helena. I want her book so badly. I want to re...
I adored this book. If there were an annual MMOscars, I'd start a volunteer fan group to promote this title. It made me laugh often and hard. It gave my highlighting finger carpel-tunnel.The snarky voice of the narration would often digress upon digressions, to the point where I could see how it m...
This is the second book I've read by T.J. Klune and while I liked Bear, Otter and the Kid, it was too rambly and angsty for me to be very interested in the follow up. But this one was supposed to be more of a lighthearted comedy, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Klune writes in one of his blog posts...
One star for the story and one star for the sheer "absurdity" of literary master Paul Auster telling an m/m romcom. Maybe some other m/m author can create an oversexed protagonist called Philip Roth or even a meta-hero called Nathan Zuckerman.Pity. Because this book had potential for something good....
Okay. So I think my status updates during this book give a pretty accurate view of what I think of this book. The great majority of it was pretty darned funny! Other reviewers have said it was juvenile and racist. Uh, sometimes yeah it was. Paul, the narrator, was snarky about everyone and everythi...
