A cathartic read that lists Trump's most insulting actions before the author delightfully skewers each one in lewd and masterful ways. Pennyfarthing delivers his barbs in a gentleman-scholar-meets-Victorian-brawler way, which makes the most perverse insult seem almost quaint and always appropriate. Humor is the only way I can handle political discourse today.

Disturbingly funny book for days when political madness is too serious and overwhelming.

A gory clash of the Gods that reads like an action thriller packed with dark humor, absurd romance, fantastic mythos, and dysfunctional family drama. And then it goes BUGNUTS in a delightful way. Bonus points for the audiobook narrator, who had me laughing despite my terror. Not for the meek. Great for fans of Gaiman and Grant Morrison.

I listened to the whole book in a day, so that's a good sign. Rosario Dawson does a nice job, but I couldn't help but wonder how Aisha Taylor would have read it. I kept thinking I was listening to Laaaaannnnaaa mixed with Han Solo as a sassy young smuggler on the moon. It had a few too many heartwarming lessons to teach, but the cast of characters was a great mix of sci-fi faves. It hooked me just as I was eyeballing another shiny cover.

It was one of the books to survive my multiple Battle of The Books these past few months. And while I was not completely enthralled throughout, I did return to it regularly (when I needed to give a more intense read out of my head), and finished with a favorable impression). Very lovely descriptions of a very beautiful country, and a rogue-ish main character kept me involved to the end, which is not easy with my attention span. Solid B for me.

Such a fantastic read, and an unexpected conclusion. Loved it so much, I'm going to read it with my peepers next. It's definitely a great production by Audible, too. The actors never failed to deliver every line in this book, managing to keep me planted in the author's world the entire time. I only wish more pages were devoted to the sport of lady boxing in such a genteel era. Perhaps a sequel will bring more info about these brave brawlers.

Add it to your Margaret Atwood favorites.
Read it along with Gate to Women's County
(by author whose name I forgot since college,
but it was an awesome read nonetheless).
This book is a bit prophetic, methinks. Be afraid.
