5 get your freak on stars
|
Mr. Rutherford Aston is having a
really bad, screwed up day.
Worst of all, it’s Christmas Eve. Scrooge that he is, Ford does NOT do holidays
or merriment. He does “pets”. Not
planning on spreading holiday joy, all he wants is to be entertained by his
current submissive “pet” and nurse his broken heart. Total detachment – that’s how he likes to
live his life. As it turns out, his
plans fall through. From the appearance of troubled friends, to a smart-ass
12-year-old girl, to sitting in church, Ford’s day was quite busy and off
schedule.
This novella gives the reader a
glimpse into the life and times of a really loveable but crazy dude. Ford is sarcastic, pessimistic and at times
sadistic. The conversations, which take place in his head, are hysterical. He’s twisted and crazy - I fell in love with him. He
is some character.
Got to admit, I have not read the
original series. But, it must be said that jumping into this novella cold, I
was not lost. The author does a
fantastic job of keeping the reader informed of the back-story. It was a fast, funny and enjoyable read. Loved being in the mind of this
self-proclaimed “freak”. I look forward
his story as well and other characters in the series.
