The Menstruating Mall 27 reviews Carlton Mellick III
Afterbirth Books, 2005
Fun, satirical, read
+ Read this instead of Stephen King + One of Mellick's best
I read this book in between my college classes. It is fast paced and fun to read and made me laugh out loud about a dozen times. The characters are hilariously stereotypical but definitely that way by design. This book has definitely surreal moments and circumstances, as the title mentions, the ...

The Overwhelming Urge 1 review Andersen Prunty
Eraserhead Press, 2008
Save Our Sandwhiches
+ Pimps, Mothers, and that Diabetes guy...
The Overwhelming Urge has a certain underlying rhythm to it, like the dots and dashes of an SOS distress call. These shorts roll over the reader, wave upon wave, drawing a haplessly logical audience further from shore or any other recognizable reference point. Is it reasonable to wake up with laser ...

The Sadness of Sex 2 reviews Barry Yourgrau
Delta, 1995
The Sadness of Sex: An intoxicating adventure
+ I Thought All The Great One's Had Already Been Written...
When was the last time that you read a collection of short stories so
well written and colourful and that you could taste the words
thick in your mouth and you flinched at the imagery.
Seldom does one stumble across the work of a writer
that can demonstrate such a clear understanding and ...

Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions (P.S.) 84 reviews Neil Gaiman

Book Review: Smoke and Mirrors by Neil Gaiman
+ What more can be said
Neil Gaiman's Smoke and Mirrors is a collection of his short stories and poems. Like his other short story/poem collection titled Fragile Things, this book too has an introduction with commentary of each of the stories and poems contained within. For me, this introduction is the best part of the ...

Haunted: A Novel 103 reviews Chuck Palahniuk
Anchor, 2006
wow
I thought that this book was entertaining, novel, and well written. It tells a frame story beautifully, although beautiful is not really the right word at all. Not only was it thought provoking, but it provoked a strong reaction in general, a trait that is losing strength in literature today.

Everyone Poops (My Body Science) (My Body Science) 205 reviews Taro Gomi
Kane/Miller Book Pub, 1993
Delivers Practical Message in Fun Way
+ Great potty training tool! + Amazing Book
Well, everyone DOES, and it's another thing kids are curious about. Is also a boost for potty training, by explaining the purpose in an age-appropriate, humorous way. Also recommend "The Gas We Pass: The Story of Farts" for how to answer another of those embarrassing questions from your wee ones.
