I'm new so excuse me if I'm posting this in the wrong place or it's inappropriate.
Didn't see any Christopher Moore books in the Book Interest section. Great author. My favorite so far is the book "Lamb" it's about Jesus growing up. Some Christians were offended but I'm a Christian and thought the book was great, funny and so well-written that you believe you know what Jesus did while growing up. Christopher Moore does a lot of research on his books and is able to "fill in the blanks", fiction of course.
For those that have read "Lamb" the part about Jesus discovering coffee was one of my favorites.

Island of the Sequined Love Nun! I've always enjoyed Christopher Moore books. My brother got me reading his books. I started with Practical Demonkeeping, then Bloodsucking Fiends then Island and the last one I read was the Stupidest Angel, a very good Christmas gift! I haven't read Lamb but it's in the house and so is You Suck so I'll try to read Lamb this weekend and get some good laughs!

Thanks for reminding me about "Fluke" someone else mentioned that book. Do you ever read any of Neil Gaiman or Terry Pratchett? Neverwhere was on of Neil Gaiman's first novels and it was good.
I highly recommend "Good Omens" which Neil (like I know him) wrote with Terry Pratchett, that was great. Another good against evil, fantasy, and humorous.

I've read Gaiman's graphic novels and I'm familiar with Terry Pratchet. Boyfriend is into them. He also enjoys reading the works of Stephen Fry, from Jeeves and Wooster.
