Matthew Scudder is an extremely flawed guy but I enjoy spending time with him.

I found this to be grotesque and entertaining. I'm not a car guy but I find the car guys (and gals) here fascinating. I figured this would be a rather straight forward satire about celebrity but at one point it filled me with extreme dread. I think this is my favorite by Crews so far.

The Conclusion, in Which Nothing is Concluded seems pretty apt.

A great western about two outsiders dealing with their demons as Texas becomes independent, then part of the US and finally a slave state.

This is the first I've read in this series and I enjoyed it overall. I almost DNF'd it in the prologue and the ending got rather complicated but it was a fun book. 
informative medium-paced

It was informative. I'm not a political junkie and I'll probably forget most of what I learned pretty quickly but it kept me interested.

Strange but engaging. This moves pretty quick. The crime isn't interesting and folks motivations seem strange. The lewdness struck me as over the top.
