Blood and Guts in High School: A Novel (Acker, Kathy) 11 reviews Kathy Acker
Grove Press, 1994
Finished it on an airplane...really cool! (Actually "in")
+ Acker Rocks + You will know her
Excellent book. While my perfect rating (not that it matters) may drop over time, this was a jarringly satisfying read, one where the slipstream sexual complexity of all the smattered nonsense makes the cliches within (esp. at the end) all the more simple, profound, and resonant. It's something ...

Flowers in the Attic (Dollanganger) 447 reviews V.C. Andrews, 2005
It all begins with this book...
+ my favorite book + My guilty pleasure
Sadly, this wasn't the first VCA book I ever read, but when I got around to this, I was not disappointed. It is easily one of the best books I have ever read. The drama, the intrigue, the suspense... I have read this book several times and never get tired of it.

The Wasp Factory: A Novel 137 reviews Iain Banks
Simon & Schuster, 1998
The calmness and clarity of a disturbed mind...
+ A quick and interesting read... + Wasp Factory: a Scottish House of Horror
Few admit that, when they were children, they scorched ants with the sun's rays under a magnifying glass, or tossed insects into spider webs to be eaten alive. We own up to flushing bugs down the toilet, and smashing flies with newspapers, books, and fly swatters.
In The Wasp Factory, Frank ...

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 ...

Myth Adventures Collection: Another Fine Myth (Myth Adventures) 3 reviews Robert Asprin, Phil Foglio
Studio Foglio, 2008
Worth the wait
+ Later than expected but not too late... + For anyone who likes a good Mythery!
This is a re-release of the comics and graphic novels from 20 + years ago. Mine were destroyed 20 years ago so I am glad to have them again. While this graphic novel does not follow the Another Fine Myth book perfectly, it is still well written and illustrated. The humor is great, and though ...

Empire of the Senseless: A Novel (Acker, Kathy) 4 reviews Kathy Acker
Grove Press, 1994
Acker describes the senselessness of this mileu
+ One in a Million
Empire of the Senseless is schizogenic because the reality it is dealing with, and our own mileu is schizogenic. Acker comes from the cut and paste school, via Burroughs and the Fluxus experiments and interprets reality through a greasy sometimes opaque, sometimes lewd, sometimes amazingly ...

Unadulterated Cat 19 reviews Terry Pratchett
Orion (an Imprint of The Orion Publishing Group Ltd ), 2002
Even cat haters will probably love this book.
+ Great book for cat lovers and Terry Pratchett fans
I'm amazed that there are any people out there who don't love this book. Pratchett, the funniest writer in English of the past century (even considering Wodehouse), takes on the orneriest species of the planet. Because it's a little coffee-table book, of course it won't have the depth and span of ...
