5.0

This book is definitely aptly named. It's stupid, alright. But as always with Christopher Moore, it's quite funny. This book got off to a bit of a slow start and I almost gave up on it, but it picked up around the second chapter and then it moved quickly and I laughed a lot. Moore does rapid and excellent character development - you get a real sense of this town and the people in it. The story is totally bizarre, even for Moore. He really went off the reservation with this one, but that's part of what makes it work.

This was definitely a fun, quick read, and a good one for me to have read during Christmas.
