Pierson, D. C. Crap Kingdom. New York: Viking, 2013. Print

Crap Kingdom genre is considered to be a humor/adventure type. The book plot is basically this, an ordinary teen named Tom meets an "alien" from another world that claims he is the Chosen One and must go with him to this other world to save them. “I need to tell you something,” he said in an entirely different voice, “and the thing I have to tell you, it’s that there’s this other world, right? And in it – in it”- the guy grimaced, chocked, and went on-“in it, you’re the Chosen One, so I need you to come with me. (Pg 14) Throughout his adventure he finds that the other world is literally made of garbage and he denies his job. This leads to him re-thinking what he has done and his adventure begins from there with lots of funny moments that make you enjoy the book. When I first got the book I really thought it was just another boring book, but this one caught my attention from the moment I began reading it. "He turned his head and looked at his reflection in the mirrored door of his closet. Neither man nor beast nor shadow creature was going to pass through the mirror and spirit him away. (Pg 5)" If you are looking for a good time or laugh, I recommend this book because it will do just that.

Based on your review for Crap Kingdom (interesting name) , you make the book seem like it will be very enjoyable to read. It seems like the book will be very humorous and very entertaining. I can tell that you've enjoyed this book (if you even read it) and that you would recommend this book to other people that like comedy. I liked the last few sentences because it seemed like there was a bit of suspicion in it which always appeals to the reader's eye and make them want more. Very nice review, trés bien

This book sounds interesting but it also just sounds very light hearted and just for a good time. Is this the way it is?
