I stuck it out. I refused to give up. I was determined to see it through, and find the point.

And on the last page, I discovered...there was none.

Sigh. The book would be amusing as a series of short stories. But no. He had to try combining their stories and have them all meet and interacting and DEAR GOD I could have flung the book into the bayou 100 times before I was halfway through.

I give it three stars because parts were amusing. I'll give it to him. But I do not think anyone should read this expecting to find a point.

A rollicking roller coaster of facts and endearing-if-lethally-flawed characters, Florida Roadkill is a wild ride and colorfully good read.

I could not describe with any accuracy how much fun this book was. I hope the author was paid in advance because with the price of mind altering drugs these days, he might have been homeless by the time he got all this out on paper.

The logistics of keeping this together must have taken a whole house of dry-erase boards and post-it notes. I almost wish I hadn't finished it because I still want to be reading it. What a perfect escape from reality!
