I enjoy his books, but I have to be in a mood to read them (usually when I'm on vacation).<br /><br />Twenty books in a month? I sometimes wonder - especially given the speed in which participants of Erin's book challenges seem to read. I'd say it is!

His writing style is definitely not one that appeals to the masses. I have to be in a particular mood for him, too. I typically read/listen to him when on vacation in Florida or the Caribbean.

I like weird characters but definitely agree he's the kind of author you love or hate. And I definitely have to be in the right mood to read him, otherwise I get annoyed. But when we're in sync - he's hilarious.
