You Betcha!
So, tonight I was able to read a bit of Sarah Palin's Going Rogue (on shelves Tuesday) and it is awesome. And by awesome, I mean so bad that it's good. Sort of like the Arnold Schwarzenegger classic Commando or a stinky fart. This opinion has nothing to do with political leanings or the book's content, it's all about the writing. It's true that I would rather discover that Glenn Beck is my illegitimate half-brother than spend an afternoon with Sarah Palin, but I might read her book cover to cover. The first paragraph alone is filled with enough cheese ("autumn bouquet", "small town America") to lure me in. I also need to say here, despite the fact that I don't personally care for Mrs. Palin, I hope we sell the shit out of this book. I also hope the publisher has contacted Revlon, because we are going to need more lipstick for this pig.

Soooooooo many levels........
Why is this the 15 minutes of fame that never, ever goes away?
B,
ReplyDeleteI can almost forgive you for reading the book but can I forgive you for purchasing it? Oh wait - did you purchase it? I think not. Frankly, I hope no one buys it. I will promise to purchase 30 other books from bn next month to help keep them afloat.
