I just love Dan Landis, have been wanting to read this book forever, just haven't had a lot of spare time. The snarky/sarcastic side of him just makes me so happy, and the poor guy is like a magnet for trouble. Hmm shall we mention the beautiful women, no, better not at this time. I really enjoy Jay's way of writing, it makes me feel right at home with the characters and care deeply before I know I do.
I want to say I have read the entire book but alas, I have not, am still working on it. I will be updating this review before cross posting and as I have time will eagerly devour the rest. I just want to tell everyone that Jay is without a doubt a person to follow, his blog is always a wonder and his humor is, well, you need to experience it for yourself.
