kaigouBecause I'm halfway tempted to track down the book based on this sentence alone:
If the bastard daughter of Red Dwarf and Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy had a lovechild with Aaron Sorkin, its slash fandom would produce something like this.
I mean, honestly, how could I resist?
ETA: whoops, sorry, didn't mean to forget the actual, y'know, BOOK info. The quote is from a review at Uniquely Pleasurable, about Sakana Sara's Cheesecake and the Art of Political Warfare. Free story posted on LJ. And gotta say, within the first four paragraphs, I'm totally down with the reviewer's observation.
