Moon Lake, by Dan Fogler
★☆☆☆☆
156 Pages
I chose this because of the cover and the blurb, but...dear God, WTF is this?
I'm sorry to say I read as far as the atrocious “Fuck Week” song which – shivers – precedes a kid's summer camp. That trash was then followed by *gag* monkey rape, gross indecency, dry heaving (me!) and running to DNF while gouging my eyes out.
And that was just the first 27 pages...of 107.
On top of all that – the story? Was there one? Maybe it got missed in the crass, juvenile attempt at humour. The art work? I was 100% all in when I saw the cover. I was expecting Shape of Water level creatures, with that stunning cover artwork throughout, and what I got was...some 1970 pre-teen's comic book with “pull-my-finger” and fart jokes that I'm supposed to...what? Roll over dying of laughter? At this? Nope. The artwork was a second-rate Archie comic, focusing on as much porn as they could fit into the pages.
If you can survive the Amazon Kindle sample without gagging or rolling your eyes, you deserve every page of what comes next. Enjoy.
If not, I suffered this, so now you don't have to. You're welcome.
And can you please pass the mind-disinfectant, so I forget I ever read this?
