Why Am I Always Late to the Party?

While I was out today, I bought a used copy of Good Omens. I've been wanting to check it out for a while, but you know, never had.

Oh. My. God.

I am so in love with this book it isn't funny. I am not getting any sleep tonight, apparently.

Hee! I just read it a few months ago, myself. It is absolutely hilarious.

Yay! You know there's fanfic and art for it... :)

That's a great book - one that will give much enjoyment and amusement. :)

Yes! I loved that book enough to buy it, many years ago. I've reread it a couple of times since then, and still enjoy it, although not as much as the first read.

I used to rec it when I was a librarian, although I had to be careful who I suggested might like to read it--we have many open minded folk here, but we also live in Bible Belt, USA, and some are pretty narrow minded about such things.

I'm glad it is giving you something to smile about.

It's so funny! I have two copies. A paperback for loaning and travel, a hardback for at home. If you like absurdist fiction, check out Christopher Moore. :)

I can't even tell you how many times I've read that book. It's just incredible.

Hee! I read it in December and loved it. For some reason I can't make myself seek out its fandom, though. I can't decide if that's an indication of how much I love it or a sign that I don't love it enough.

Ooh, I loved that book! I really ought to buy my own copy, since I borrowed it from the library. Fantastic stuff.
