currently reading, Going Bovine by Libba Bray.
"It's all got a sort of pathetic, TV-movie-of-the-week treatment. How our hero started off as a good kid/underachiever-with-promise/hardened-by-life-but-marshmallow-soft-in-the-center type who managed to get hooked on drugs...Cut to denouement, where everyone has learned a lesson and comes out a stronger, wiser person for it. The kind of shit that makes parents and politicans coo over the "positive," "life-affirming" message that gosh-darn-it our young people need more of today."

ReplyDeleteThanks Steph :D
ReplyDeleteLOL! From this one passage alone you really get a feel for the book, don't you? I love Libba Bray's Gemma Doyle series, but this sounds like something totally different - and like something I'd love too. I love me some sarcasm ;-) Great teaser!
