Oh, hey! My first book just appeared on Goodreads. I can tell that I will view this as a product of the cynicism of my 20's, but I developed a pretty unique style by writing it. I'm mostly concerned with conveying a sense of flow/ momentum, and making sure every sentence is entertaining in some way. It sets the standard for my current projects, and everything that I make hope to make in the future.

Funniest book I've read in years. Speculative satire for the sensitive young man.

If I had to describe it using a silly analogy, it’s like if David Dees wrote Winesburg, Ohio (a book I dropped instantly when I got my copy of Exit 92 in the mail).

While gleefully absurd, this book still contains an earnest fixation on the elements bringing mankind to the lowest depths of indignity, resulting in a cathartic reading experience without ever being cringe.

A perfect stocking-stuffer for this upcoming Fourth of July.

Certified dick lit. This book should be burned. White boy reads Infinite Jest once and thinks he can write meta fiction fr 🙄

(Actually really liked it, author is cool, he did a portrait of me on the inside cover, thanks Max!)

I felt a spiritual kinship with that floating bag of dog shit. By the grace of God, there go I.

Fun but a bit messy. The author has a Tom Robbins style obsession with including long ass lists when describing things (shops in specific areas of town, types of pollution floating down a river, ect) which were a bit over-done.

The ending does a good job of pulling all the characters together and the pride parade was scene was funny. I'm looking forward to more works from him in the future.
