Book Review: Smashed, Squashed, Splattered, Chewed, Chunked and Spewed

Smashed, Squashed, Splattered, Chewed, Chunked and Spewed Smashed, Squashed, Splattered, Chewed, Chunked and Spewed by Lance Carbuncle


My review


rating: 4 of 5 stars
Some things that are funnier than almost everything else:

Bassethounds

Old Bluesmen

Elvis

The Sasquatch

South of the Border (the pseudoMexican tourist trap)

The American South



Lance Carbuncle without being just completely dismissive of the South gives us a cool and scathing road trip through it's twists and turns. Full of colorful, weird characters, lawbreaking shenanigans and insights into existential confusion, Smashed, Squashed, Splattered, Chewed, Chunked and Spewed delivers. Reminiscent of the films of Savage Steve Holland, Richard Linklater and the Farrelly Brothers and packed with humorous asides and notations, this book is oozing with fun, intelligence and humanity and hopefully will make it to the big screen someday.
