I went into this book without reading any synopsis or reviews on it, and i'm so glad i did. I love love love this style of writing. Laughed many times throughout this book, great trip through a day in the life of. Typical person that calls themselves a writer but hasn't actually written anything. :p Did you know that there are veterans who protect funerals that might be protested by the Westboro Baptist Church? There are and they show up in Naked Came the Florida Man. Serge finds a pastor whose home has been repossessed because of a faulty mortgage and while righting that wrong finds a teenage girl who wants to play football (and can't because, well, she's a girl). Also, Serge meets Cheyenne, whose brother Kyle is a veteran of the Iraq wars. Serge and Cheyenne have a nice relationship that ends quietly. Kyle is part of the Patriot Guard Riders, bikers and veterans who protect funerals from the Westboro Baptist Church. Read Naked Came the Florida Man to learn about the Patriot Guard Riders. Dorsey is funny, he's dry, but the Patriot Guard Riders are real and I'm just happy about that Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. I only got part way through this book and decided it wasn't for me. I just wasn't interested in the story or the characters. DNFsin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Pertenece a las seriesSerge Storms (23)
Though another devastating hurricane is raking Florida, its awesome power can't stop the Sunshine State's most loyal son, Serge A. Storms, from his latest scenic road trip: a cemetery tour. With his best bro Colman riding shotgun, Serge hits the highway in his '69 gold Plymouth Satellite, putting pedal to the metal on a grand tour of the past. Beginning in Key West, the sunshine boys' odyssey includes a forgotten mass grave in Palm Beach county holding the remains of African Americans killed by the Great Hurricane of 1928, and the resting place of one world-famous television dolphin (RIP Flipper) from the 1960s. But one deadland--a haunted old sugar field--holds more than just the bones of those who've passed. For years, local children have whispered about a boogeyman hiding among the stalks. Could it be the same maniac known as Naked Florida man who's been raising hell all over the place? There are few things Serge loves more than solving a good mystery and bestowing justice on miscreants who sully his beloved home's good name. With his partner bong boy, Florida's psycho superhero will find the truth in this hilariously violent delight--packed with history, lore, and plenty of motel antics--from the insanely ingenious Tim Dorsey.-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Books don’t get much lighter, than a Tim Dorsey book.
Look you don’t read these books to become enlightened , but there is excellent history about Florida throughout the book, and a couple of people who deserve to have bad things happen to them in remarkably crazy and unique ways, well as usual the book has these too. ( )
