Sacred Smokes is a dope book. Learned a lot about my new Twitter buddy, @TVAyyyy. You've gotta love the stream of consciousness technique he often uses in these quasi-autobiographical tales. Man, he's got wit for days. I laughed and had a good time while also raising my brows at his beautiful stretches of prose.
I listened to the Audible edition and he narrated it himself. I don't think anyone else could've done a better job. He's got VOICE, and I ain't talking about his tangible voice skills or the voices he gave the characters. He's got that oomph that you want from stories like these. His voice is important and more people need to hear it.
Learning about his backstory and the way in which he grew up made me want to meet Van Alst some day and hang. He seems like too cool a dude, and I can't wait to see what else he's got up his literary sleeve.
