I don't want to be churlish (Ha! Not much anyhow...) but surely this author, this Aaron Rayburn, is no better than say Dan Brown or J K Rowling, both of whom have all the story telling ability of wet socks....
While it's chulrish to make mock of other people's sepllnig mistakes or grammatical errors, I do find 'bust stop' to be most amusing. Please do not change this typo - we all know what you mean, but somehow the goof...
See what happens when you squat to pee..? Fella don't want to get a snake bitten knob, fella better stand up and pee like a man. Bet he was German - males there are encouraged to'sitzpinkel' (pee while sitting)...
@ Mofongo -- I'm afraid you've fallen victim to the 'Al Jazeera is a front for muslimian islamocommunifacism' wingnut school of journalistic criticism. Yes, AJ is based Somewhere in the Middle east, but an uncritical mouthpiece for anti-Western and anti-US...

Meh... Anyone stupid enough to pay over the odds for bloody shoes is probably stupid enough to try this at home. If it rids the world of a few more wannabe hiphoppers or tryhard gangsta aspirants, car jumping wearing expensive...
Fact: Mass media feeds us shit and tells us it is caviar. From print to broadcast media to the internet, there is a ton of junk being greedily consumed every minute. It is up to the citizens of the world to pick our entertainers. But hey, redneck transvestites who eat cats live on Springer is considered timely and wholesome entertainment. Truth: You are what you eat should be turned to you are what you consume. We all have a choice and reason behind what we watch and read. If you like horrid B movies or daytime soaps it is your...
LOL Nice going Cazart. This says it all about that book... 127 used & new available from $0.01 I prefer to trap myself on a plane with booze and Wired Magazine. Although sneaking on the booze is getting to be quite a challenge........
Ha, good one, cazart. You kinda have to wonder about the wisdom of an author having a word like "Godforsaken" in the title, though, huh -- why give your critics any more arrows than they already have? (I tried to apply similar logic to the producers of the film "Gone in 60 Seconds" but they didn't listen.) Trailwaze: I have not seen the redneck-transvestites-who-eat-cats episode yet...you have a link? (Oh, and about that last one...have you tried filling your travel size mouthwash bottles with hooch yet? The only thing is, if you're going on a weekend trip and bringing 22...
I think Scotch on the breath is appealing.... I just need Scotch scented Scope. We could market it to teetotalers trying to fit in at the bar.... (Interested in new Scope product testing Johnny?)...
don't fret jeem its on amazon at $18.86, a steal! some dude even gave it this "review": fast-paced! A horrifyingly good read! It's about time someone claimed Stephen King's throne!!...
Jason: point taken, and to be fair, I have not actually read Mr. Rayburn's book -- a friend forwarded me that review of the book, it cracked me up, and I figured I'd share it. But putting aside the argument that someone who doesn't know the difference between "emanate" and "emancipate" probably needs more literary coaching than just some "expensive editors and proofreaders," hey, I'm giving the guy free publicity for his book. If you feel THAT bad for him, now you know exactly where you can go to make him feel $33.50 better....
I hate to seem naïve here, but being a poor self-publishing writer doesn't mean shouldn't have a decent grasp of the English language, especially if your resumé says "Writer". But I'd be more than willing to offer Mr. Rayburn a tenure as our YBNBY Book Reviewer, as long as he works for the same "nothing" that the rest of us work for....
