What we're reading: Practical Demonkeeping by Christopher Moore

It's no secret. I'm a big fan of Christopher Moore. The man writes cheesy horror wrapped in a romance package.

I mean, look at that cover. How middle school is that?

Anyway...

Meet Catch. He's a demon. Most of the time, he's invisible, unless he's eating people.

Meet Travis. Travis is a nonogenarian who has looked 20ish since he was a physically and emotionally abused seminary student who accidentally called Catch up from the pit of Hell.

When he called Catch up, he hopped a train to try to run away, and wound up exchanging a set of candlesticks for the kindness of a stranger, and when he figures out after all these years he needs those candlesticks to send Catch back, he tracks them to Pine Cove, California, a one-horse town full of one-horse town characters.

Anyway, I'm going on the assumption that demons, interesting characters, and the fact that this is a Chris Moore novel are all you really need to hear. Go read it.
