Book Review: Come, Thou Tortoise

I finished Jessica Grant's Come, Thou Tortoise last night. I liked it, especially the beginning and the end. The middle part was so-so. This is probably one of the funnier books I've ever read. Grant uses a lot of word play and I often found myself grinning on the subway, maybe even a few (quiet) chuckles as well. I found Audrey/Oddly's personality and "uniqueness" a bit much at times, and was a bit concerned about reading the tortoise's point of view-but it worked. I thoroughly agree with most of the review over at The Quill and Quire.

(Upon rereading this post I realize it's kind of lame, but, well to be honest with you, it's Friday evening and I have a million other things to do like go and sit on the couch....watch Simpson's...fold towels...wait for Marcia/wine to get here.....wait for Dave to get home so we can decide what to do for dinner...have dinner...drink wine...wait for Angela and Peggy to get here...drink more wine...and then go to the We Are The Take show tonight.)

Have a GREAT weekend!!!!!!!!!
