Elvis, Jesus and Coca-Cola by Kinky Friedman

5.0

Jesus Christ! Shalom! Whatever! Kinky Friedman by some weird cosmic coincidence is one of the best writers on the planet. He of course gets no accolades because he writes humorous mystery fiction for the most part. But his insights, compassion, and humanity come bleeding out of his books without arrogance. It’s uncanny how much emotion these little books house. And the story is interesting, unique, and entertaining too. Just a great read. As an aside, the short epilogue to his cat at the end gutted me emotionally, or maybe I’m just a pushover; anyway, I need to read another one of these sooner rather than later.
