i picked this book up from the bookstore on a whim. read the back and thought i would give it a try. i haven't read a book this good in a long time. it's endearing in the most offensive way possible. i can't really elaborate more than that. i will say that i am pissed that i read it so quickly and now i have that big let down you get after an exceptional book. what to read next? anyway, this book is highly recommended. author is D.B.C. Pierre. this guy's first book.
