Book Your Ticket

Pejman feels the same way about books as I do...

What's in my tote bag tonight? The new Arch McNally by Vincent Lardo writing as Lawrence Sanders. I've gotta tell you... McNally's Dare just ain't up to snuff. The writing is strained (okay, strangled), and Lardo just doesn't produce the same snappy, breezy tone to this as he's managed in the past. Damn. Usually I love these books. I think I'll put on my puce beret and pout for a while.

Update: Yep. I was right. It's like expecting white chocolate raspberry mousse and getting Nilla Wafers instead. Sigh.
