How do we get this movie financed

John Waters is a master of making you love unlikeable freakazoids who are selfish fiends set on watching the world burn. Liarmouth was an absolute riot of pure madness that I could not stop reading or thinking about.

This book is so stupid and so fun! If you ever seen a John Waters movie you pretty much know what you're getting. I read this while traveling and the absurdity of the story made it a really entertaining read that I could pick up and put down without confusion. I would definitely check content warnings because there were a couple of times my boyfriend had to put the book down, but I think its worth picking up if you can handle it.
