Hey Everyone!! :-)
It's the 18th again, so time for my #IndieBooksBeSeen monthly indie author book review!! Enjoy! :-)
Cigerets, Guns & Beer by Phillip T. Stevens:
You've heard of a comedy of errors? How about a comedy of absurdities? That's what Dodd finds himself in the middle of when his car breaks down, and he has to stop in a small town in Texas to get supplies when he ends up in the middle of a minor legal tangle that detains him. Little did he know this would lead to him finding himself ensnared in a local treasure-hunting legend, on the wrong side of a corrupt, small-town oligarchy, and as an object of lust for every woman in the vicinity. Can he find his way through this labyrinth of small-town lunacy and incestuous corruption? You'll have to read to find out!
I really enjoyed this book. It's a hilarious take on small-town life. The "big fish in a small pond" trope is used skillfully, and the way characters are simultaneously mocked for their foibles and celebrated for the ingenuity and ability to enjoy simple pleasures demonstrates an understanding of human nature that is admirable. Five stars.
