After yesterday's sweet little girl, today you can meet Cherise:
A sweet wee thing. Well, kinda. I was going to do a blog entry about books with n@ughty little girls, until I considered what search engines and their bots might do with that particular concept...
On the Amazon.com page for this book, you can take a look inside. You can also buy a Kindle ebook edition, and download the first chapter free. The product description on Amazon says:
The bloody footprints leading out of Cherise’s bedroom are the first clue that perhaps the little darling with the bow in her hair is not an angel. As Cherise is shuttled from one aunt’s home to another, her aunts vanish, meeting inventive and hysterical ends. With a killer punch line on its final page, Jim Benton’s Cherise the Niece will leave readers laughing.
I myself feel that it's important to let you know that there is a note at the beginning of the book advising that no aunts were harmed in its making...
Definitely black humour; if you're not in a high school, maybe one to read before adding to the collection.
But fun? Heck yes! It's caused lots of chuckling in our library.
Tomorrow's Quirky Book is one of my favourites.
Cheers
