Boy’s Life
This book is more or less a page-burner version of Lake Wobegon Days.
I wouldn’t mind if this guy just kept writing and writing on this story. I most certainly would read and read, as long as the pages kept coming. It has the languid, lazydays feel of all the greatest “growing up smalltown” novels (ie To Kill A Mockingbird, etc) but with a murder mystery woven in.
This brings up an extremely interesting character in the book who is incidentally a failed writer of just this sort of thing. I’m not going to say more about it cuz I really hope you all find this book and read it. With summer right around the corner I feel that this is “just the thing”.

Trololo Guy: The Remix
You have seen the Trololo Guy, but have you seen the remix? God the remix made me laugh harder than I have for a while.

This Side of Paradise
Have you read This Side of Paradise ? Holy fuck. Read the first two sentences and weep. Man am I gonna love this. We should call our record The Dandy Warhols are The Father and Mother of Amory Blaine.
And the story that happens between his dizzying feats of sentence writing isn’t half bad either.

A Virtuous Follow-Up
Well I finally got back to and finished this book. If you’re into Henry VIII like I am, you should definitely read it.
As I said earlier, the writing style is a bit shotgun in its approach. It’s basically a few hundred pages of anecdotes and assumptions/insights into Henry VII as an old man and Henry VIII as a young one in their respective courts and its a great study in the motives and manipulations that made European empires back in those days as well.
Since this book ends quite abruptly at the introduction of Thomas Wolsey, I suggest that you have ready a book about Henry’s adult years. Perhaps beginning with the end of his first marriage so that you don’t find yourself lying there in bed thinking “damn that ended abruptly”.
This is the kind of writing which I love and there’s a small abundance of it here.
