BioThis journal is dedicated to the purpose of reading and keeping a running commentary on some of the books which I am reading. Portions of said books are occasionally quoted (with attribution) for the purpose of illustrating exactly what it is I am referring to in my commentary.
Now, said commentary is going to be mostly unkind because the books which I am reading have been sent to me by various people specifically in order to hear my screams of outrage. They were chosen specifically in an attempt to set me off and have, obviously succeeded. These books do not please me, and I am perfectly and unkindly blunt about this. This journal is to provide amusement for the people who sent me these books specifically hoping to provoke this reaction and, possibly, for passer-by as well.
This journal is not, in any way, stating that these books are not perfectly good books in their own right. They are simply directly adverse to the journal owner’s personal tastes – both in plot and literary style. If you enjoy them, then you are among a very large number of people who do and you are invited to skip my less-than-kind commentary.
Feel free to find a second hand book shop and purchase your own copies of these books and read along. Make comments. Construct humorous icons. Join the fun and merriment. I will friend anyone who friends this journal (a minor necessity, as all posts will be friends-locked to prevent trolling).
This journal is dedicated to humor of a certain flavor and that flavor is not for everyone. If you unfriend this journal, it will unfriend you. It is an easy process and not one which requires any real effort. If you don’t like what you find here, please simply unfriend – no harm, no foul.
I will try to update this journal regularly, at a minimum of once every three days. Which book I choose to use for my update will be more or less at whim. I read until I can’t take it anymore and then post my observations. Tags are in use – for overall disclaimers, the rules of commenting in this journal, title, author and specific, humorous objection. (Expect to see one on the Amazing Elasta-chains, for example.)
Due to the content of some of the chosen books, this journal is rated NC-17. If you are under 18 please do not friend it. Other requirements include a sense of humor, a willingness to make comments of your own and a basic enjoyment of a good laugh at the expense of bad writing.

dorothywwom has asked me to issue a warning regarding drinking and reading some of the material contained within this journal. Thank you.
Please click here for a current list of the books I am reading. (Yes, this is friends locked. The icons are more or less a dead give-away of at least one of them.)
This journal is friends only. If you'd like to join and read my agonies, please read this post and comment, asking to be friended.
