The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove by Christopher MooreMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I have yet to find a book from Christopher Moore I don't like. Each book i have read has made me laugh at loud at least a few times. Each one is funny, unique, and bizarre in the best ways. This one is not deviating from my feelings on them all. I was engaged with the large cast of characters. Each character felt real and fully developed.
This melancholy cove felt like a dream. The place felt both a little surreal and yet firmly grounded in reality. Moore has a great talent of taking truly weird and twisted even and making it feel like it could really exist in our world.
What may have added to my feelings of surreal was I read a good portion of this in Walt Disney World. It felt odd to be reading about a giant Lust Lizard while listening to Small World.
This isn't my FAVORITE Moore book, but loved it and recommend it.
