Books: Christopher Moore's "A Dirty Job"
Just started this yesterday and it's a hoot:
It's the story of a Beta Male who, after the birth of his daughter, picks up the job of being Death. Not the Death, but rather a Death. So far it's a hoot and a half. Reading Christopher Moore is like reading Carl Hiassen, but with stories not just in Florida. That's a good thing. The stories are always inventive and very funny.
