The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove by Christopher Moore
3.0

I honestly wasn't impressed with this book at all until somewhere between half and two-thirds of the way through, at which point it became hilarious. I found most of the characters annoying until events caused them to develop in accordance with the mandate that characters grow and become better people...or get eaten. Having finished now, though, I have to say that it was pretty good and I became fond of some of the characters by the end.
