Review: The Perils of Praline by Marshall Thorton

Publisher: MLR Press
Length: Novel
Requested


Blurb:
When he falls in love with a contestant on a reality TV show, Peter "Praline" Palmetier decides to leave his home in rural Georgia and, failing to realize this might be considered stalking, travels to Hollywood to find his soul mate, Dave G. Once in tinsel-town he meets a collection of startling, and often horny, characters in his quest. They include a studly steward, a conservative talk show host, the Godfather of the Gay Mafia, and casting assistant Jason Friedman, who always manages to be there in time to save Praline from total disaster. Will Praline find love with the illusive Dave G., or will he recognize the charms of appealing but untelegenic Jason?

Reviewed by Markie:
When you stumble across a book that is entertaining, funny, heartwarming with hot sexy scenes scattered throughout, I think it's one heck of a find.

From the first chapter this novel kept me interested. Many times I laughed at the unique situations Praline found himself in. His way of looking at the world is totally unique and I felt the author caputured his voice perfectly. Place this one on your buy list.

Oh, and I love model's ass on the cover! :)
