2. Practical Demonkeeping by Christopher Moore


Moore, Christopher. Practical Demonkeeping. New York: Avon, 2000.


My dear soon-to-be husband has had this book on our bookshelf almost the entire time I've known him. He hasn't read it yet, but any time I was looking for something to read he'd suggest this book. Now I'll be recommending this book to him.

It's Moore's first book, published in 1992. While his style is rough around the edges and his trademark humor is yet to emerge, I still somehow found this a much more memorable book than You Suck, the only other book of his that I've read. It's not high literature. It won't change your life, cause you to rethink your values, or illuminate the world we live in. What it will do is entertain you, bring on a few chuckles, and dole out a few minutes of escape.
