Fluke, or I Know Why the Winged Whale Sings

[yendi]

So, I finished the above-mentioned book at lunch. First time in a while that I've finished a book less than 24 hours after starting it, but this is Chris Moore, and I couldn't put it down.

It's fucking awesome.

Read it. Now.

I think it's even better than Lamb. You?

[yendi]

About even. Lamb was a bit less predictable, but I really enjoyed both books. This so knocks off Star Trek IV as the top "explain the songs of the whales" work of all time.

I'm sorry - you thought this was predictable? *giggle*

[yendi]

Well, all the revelations about one character were pretty much in line with what I'd expected.

Yeah. But the rest of it..... from the second third of the book onward, I was just totally thrown for a loop. Loved it.

Can't. I just read Lamb. Another Chris Moore in such rapid succession might cause my head to explode. And my sides are still aching.

BRING BACK SPONGEBOB CTHULUPANTS!

I will -- I'm just rotating some icons in and out, as always. :-)

It's in the to be read pile. I finally started reading Christopher more on you all's recommendation and I have a huge pile of them waiting. :)

Ooooh and I'm apparently incapable of typing correctly today!
