Book Review: The Book Eaters

November 27, 2023 book review, reading journal

This book currently holds second place for best book of the reading-year. I loved it for its bookishness, dark-fairytale retelling vibes, and macabre. Of course, I made a page for it in my book journal. Here is that page for your entertainment.

Between the Grey Streaks --

the Streakers are Streaking

Not Okay! Says a Man who is Speaking

With a Squeaky Whistle in Hand that is Leaking.

Saliva drips from the tip as the Cop

Jumps on His Bike and Yells, "Stop! Stop! Stop!"

The Naked Man Laughs for he too has a Bike

One with a Motor and a Bright Head Light.

Off he Speeds for "there is no Chance

That a Cop will Make ME wear Under Pants"

He is aerodynamic in his Birthday Suit

With a Cop right behind him in Hot Pursuit.

Just for a Moment, for he's Gone in a Flash

Around the Corner, there's the Sound of a Crash

The Sirens then, and the flashing lights,

and a half hour later, the Cop on a Bike.
