Skulduggery Pleasant

"AND HE'S THE GOOD GUY."

    So, I read this book in the last couple of hours. It was so. blinking. good.

I'd review it, but I'm incoherently happy with it. "There is too much. I will sum-up."
    ~   I read a lot of books I think are funny. I rarely laugh aloud. This kept me laughing consistently in a few different veins of humor. And Skulduggery himself was funnier than he's even made out to be.
    ~   It gets to the action-adventure movie kind of fights blocking...but not belaboured.
    ~   Stephanie, the heroine, has very unusually realistic ways of thinking.

If you can bear YA, try it. If it's not for you, I'll understand--or, not really. But I'm not so cool as to kill you.
Remember this now:
 SkulPlea

The best read of the year so far.
Oh, it's been a salubrious April already...
