Book Review: Me and Mr. Cigar

Book Review
Me and Mr. Cigar by Gibby Haynes
Publishing date: January 21, 2020
Read courtesy of NetGalley.com


I wanted to like this book; it's about a dog, after all. But one-third of the way through, it became a DNF for me. The author's drug-fueled magical realism was, um, drug-fueled. Not that there's anything wrong with that (*cough*sputter*), but though it made sense in the author's own head, it never made it from his head to the paper in a coherent way. An author cannot surf on the w(hole) of his name and just hope not to end up on his butt.
