I think my new favorite author find for the year has to be Christoper Moore. If you already like him, you should check out his site. I only wish his blog had an actual RSS feed!

He has, hands down, made me laugh out loud more than any other book, movie, or any other form of entertainment this year. Not just 'lol' but seriously laugh- waiting for a doctor's appointment, on BART, just wherever. I've gotten quick a few looks, but it was all worth it.

The other weekend I finished 'Bloodsucking Fiends' and his newest 'You Suck'. Both were entertaining, although the first was my favorite. It involves SF, vampires, and loads of references to goth culture (while I no longer dress like a goth, a piece of me will always identify.) He can make fun of goths in a way that is hilarious and yet not insulting. It's that, but so much more. I'm really looking forward to picking up my next book of his from the library!
