It took me four days to read Sandman Slim and it should have taken a day, maybe a day and a half. It’s an easy read and it’s amusing and interesting enough that it should have held my attention easily. So why did it take so long? Besides being exhausted after long, full days of work – I think the lack of chapters really throws me off kilter. I’ve found I have trouble reading any book that doesn’t have chapters – and lately, I’ve read a ton of chapter-less books. It’s some horrible, evil trend that needs to die a very fast and painful death. GIVE ME SOME CHAPTERS. Or at least “PARTS”. Sheesh.
OK So Sandman Slim is a little Chris Moore-like. Very B-movie/Spaghetti Western-like. Amusing and dirty and evil all tossed together with magic, angels, demons, and other monsters. Brilliant and I am looking forward to reading the next book. But first, I need a book or two with chapters. (Ugh. Please tell me the book I just picked up has chapters…)
