That's right, A Reader's Respite is going to diversify your bookshelves, featuring some of the great titles you all have sent me lately.
God-Shaped Hole, by Tiffanie DeBartolo.
Jena, of Muse Books Reviews fame, actually purchased this book for the title alone. Interesting, because if the cover art is any indication, God is oval. Hmmmmm.
Jena will have to let us know if the cover art is a big ruse and God is actually more of a trapezoid.
CAUTION: DO NOT READ FURTHER IF YOU ARE ENJOYING A MEAL RIGHT NOW
Okay, you can't say we didn't warn you.
Natural Harvest: A collection of semen-based recipes, by Fotie Photenhauer
This little gem was brought to our attention by Caite, proprietor of A Lovely Shore Breeze. Not surprisingly, this title is not carried by Amazon.
Go figure.
But I'll double-dog-dare any one of you to try it for your local bake sale.
I've actually read about that cookbook and can't figure out why you would want to cook with bodily fluids.
ReplyDeleteOK, don't read it on a full stomach either!!! Dear Lord, who the HELL would write such a thing? I'm having all these visuals...is there an online store where you can buy the ingredients? Or do you have your main man just stand over the mixing bowl? Do you feed him a diet the day before specific to what you are making? I can't stand it!
ReplyDeleteOMG - I can't believe the cookbook! I really am in shock - bodily fluid cooking. Goodness knows how they go about collecting a half cup. Ewww ickkk
ReplyDeleteThat second book is so gross! I remember the first time I saw it online I felt ill for a few hours afterward. Yuck!
ReplyDeleteIt is a known fact that God is a circle! An oval...a trapezoid? Heretics!
ReplyDeleteAs to the second book, I am happy that I could contribute a small part to grossing ya all out. Not the contribution, of course, that you will need for your cooking.
Hurl on # 2.
ReplyDeleteGeez, someone make Casey Anthony something from it.
That second book: Oh, come on!
ReplyDeleteYikes...what is with the second book? I mean really, people do have a lot of time on their hands...
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! I own a million cookbooks, but how could I have missed this one!!!
ReplyDeleteEEEEEEEWWWWWWW!!!!
ReplyDeleteI read God-Shaped Hole several years ago and remember rather enjoying it. The semen cookbook? Not so much.
ReplyDeleteOh Lord! That last thing in the world I need is for my husband to see this "cookbook." He is on a never-ending quest to convince me that ... well, you know what, a little too much information so I'll just leave it at that!
ReplyDeleteOkay, you totally forgot to state not to read if you were drinking as well. Thank god the twins have already tested my laptop for soda resistance.
ReplyDeleteTo think someone actually 'contributed' to research for that book. Well, he must have been a happy man indeed.
OMG---there are no words for the second book. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeuck! I'm still shaking my hand trying to figure out why you'd write it in the first place. lol.
ReplyDeleteYeah - I just totally regurgitated my lunch at that last one. I am over here with tears going down my face, reading all the comments on the link to it! Are they seriously serious about this? I am NEVER eating at anyone's house again!
ReplyDeletethanks for the push to actually read A God-Shaped Hole--it's been patiently waiting on my shelf for years...
ReplyDeleteOh ick! I'm never going to buy anything from a bake sale ever again now.
ReplyDeletewow, that's just all kinds of wrong.
ReplyDeleteI read this post before I had eaten breakfast. In the end, I wasn't quite hungry! Eeewww.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I have given you a blog award here
Or maybe here even.
ReplyDeleteOkay that's definitely the WEIRDEST book I've ever heard of. I wonder if they've sold anything too. I love Sandy's comments above, LOL.
