My review of the first volume of Stephen Kings' Dark Tower saga The Gunslinger. I was NOT convinced to say the least. So, convince me I should give a shit about volume two, internet. Because I may skip the entire fucking thing.
My review of Andrew Hilbert's uproarious or terrifying satire of Austin's cultural scene Invasion of the Weirdos. A Perpetual Motion Machine Publishing book.
My review of Scott McClanahan's breakup novel The Sarah Book. McClanahan is an indie literature legend and that novel lives up to his reputation in every possible way. Published by New York Tyrant.
My review of Alissa Nutting's contemporary classic Tampa, which lives up to its infamous reputation in every possible way.
My review of Tiffany McDaniel's amazing debut novel The Summer That Melted Everything. Get in the bandwagon while there is place, guys. McDaniel is a TRE-MEN-DOUS new talent.
My review of Mark Jaskowski's debut novel The Heartbeat Harvest. While it kind of defeated me, I will say it had a lot of cool ideas and it will sure prompt debate among readers. Published by the esteemed Broken River Books.
My review of Mike McCrary's latest novel Genuinely Dangerous, which has that extra-something McCrary had on the tip of his tongue all along.
My review of Boy's Life, by Robert McCammon. A suggestion from Bob Pastorella himself.
