Waiting for Karl Rove - The Sequel... (sort of): Kat & Jeni's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

by Jeni Decker, Kat Nove (With)

The follow-up to "Waiting for Karl Rove." Think Thelma and Louise—only Thelma’s menopausal, Louise is an erratic big-mouth with a penchant for discussing her hemorrhoids, and they’re on a road trip to wrestle an apology from Karl Rove by any means necessary. *~* I laughed. I cried. I thanked the Creator I'm not married to either of them. ~Greg Crites, author of Crusade Satire is difficult and this one slams it out of the park. This sort of cultural analysis has a long history… a form of burlesque epic that uses exaggeration and mockery to attain its result. I would categorize Waiting for Karl Rove as in that long tradition of hilarious satire. Outrageous, offensive, daring, political, feminist in a daring way. When two women can join forces and write something hilarious about contemporary politics in America, it should be a Pulitzer Prize at least. ~Nadine Gallo, author of Impetuous Heart

I loved Waiting For Karl Rove and was eagerly awaiting for the sequel. It has arrived and I was not disappointed. The freakishly funny adventures of Kat and Jeni continue... this time in Vegas. I would recommend reading Waiting or Karl Rove first but if you haven't you will still enjoy this sequel. Special Agent Lebowski is back and strangely I find myself drawn to him. On the trail of Kat and Jeni is The Masked Avoider, a suspected serial killer who is hunting his ex, Cristi. Special Agent Lebowski has been assigned to establish the connection between Kat, Jeni and The Masked Avoider. Reading this book is fun in the sense of being Alice and falling down the hole to 'Deck-No ville'. A place where I can clearly hear Jeni Decker screaming, "Where the h**l is the Prep H?!" and Kat films her desperate hunt, the FBI is recording and a serial killer is intrigued. The authors are not afraid to laugh at themselves, (or anyone else), and this makes for many ridiculously funny scenes. Whether you were thinking of going to Vegas or you just need to get away from your loving but needy family for a couple of hours, read this book. It will make you appreciate the psychos in your family, (after all they aren't writing tell all books featuring their crazy adventures that all your friends would read).

Hmm. I have started adding a for those who want to know line here to warn of any language, sex, etc. For this book let's just say not for the easily offended or anyone sense of humor challenged. Everyone else grab a drink and get on board for a trip to Deck-No Ville.
