    A review of "Moon: The Life and Death of a Rock Legend" — 17 weeks ago

    WORTH CONSUMING!

    This is a book that will make you laugh, cry, and cry some more. The blatant self-destruction of the greatest rock drumer of all-time is alot to take at times. One can only witness so much pain, agony, and sadness without needed a moment to catch their breath. So I found myself- like many who’ve partied around the icon, taking frequent breaks away from Keith Moon and then reading a 200 page binge into the dark spiral of the drummer’s tortured soul.
    It’s brutal stuff and enough to make one see Moon in a less favorable sight and yet still defend to the death how vital hi presence was to the WHO.
    Worth Consuming- but be prepared to need to take a break from it at times.

    NOT WORTH CONSUMING

    For years, I felt guilty that I’ve never finished Davis’ Don’t Know Much About History. After read DKMA: Mythology- I no longer feel guilty and I no longer want to own, read, and consider any futher works of Kenneth Davis.

    A review of "Dexter in the Dark: A Novel" — 18 weeks ago

    WORTH CONSUMING!

    Now, I had just cheered someone who hated the whole Molok theme of this book. And I still stand by that cheer. To introduce a new narrator in a series like this does detract somewhat from the essence of what Detxter is all about.
    But, I really love the exploration of what makes Dex tick and the crimes and clues in the book make sense. And Dex’s friendship with Vince has some real buddy moments that remind me of Lethal Weapon- if Leathel Weapon was made by the E! network.
    The role of Dex’s soon to be step-kids has some really classic moents involing Sgt. Debbie- but some things like the kidnapping gets a real Disney-like ending. I just don’t think that could really happen in real life.
    Out of the 3 books (so far…) this is the least of the bunch. But, Dex is such a great character- I just couldn’t put it down. So, I give it a worth consuming!

    A review of "Essential Fantastic Four, Vol. 5 (Marvel Essentials)" — 18 weeks ago

    WORTH CONSUMING!

    The 70’s have a reputation for being a lean time for great comic book story telling- but I must disagree- and this book is proof of that.
    The art of Kirby just keeps getting better, Stan Lee’s stories get better (and less sappy), and what’s more- the rotating membership of the FF actually works. And had I read this before the Civil War tear up of the Baxter Building’s favorite residents, I might not have been calling so much for Joe Quesada’s head.
    Worth Consuming!

    A review of "Dearly Devoted Dexter" — 18 weeks ago

    WORTH CONSUMING!

    Better than the 1st book… I love how Dexter ends up becoming more “normal” no matter how hard he tries not too. The MO of Dr. Danco is inspired and very clever. Dexter is the greatest literary character to come out of the past 5 years. Thus,Jeff Lindsay is one of the greatest writers of the 21st century.
    I cannot wait for book 3!

    A review of "Batman: The Sunday Classics 1943-1946" — 19 weeks ago

    WORTH CONSUMING!

    For being reprints of the 1940s- this series is really very good. Al Schwartz is a marvelous writer. A couple of stories were reprinted in the Greatest Batman and Greatest Joker Stories Ever Told treasuries.

    The volume I read is a 2007 reissue of the 1990 treasury of Sunday Comics. But, it’s not a re-edit, so many of the commentaries reflect the release of the 1st Tim Burton Batman movie and thus a little dated. And multiple reference are made to the dailies- which are collected in other volumes.

    A review of "Darkly Dreaming Dexter" — 19 weeks ago

    WORTH CONSUMING!

    I got hooked watching CBS air reruns of Dexter recently- and decided to read the book.
    Somewhat true to the series- but at under 295 pages- you can’t really get 13 episodes out of that- so don’t expect the book and show to really co-incide.
    Can’t wait to read the sequels.
    WOrth Consuming!
