You know, sometimes I'm just not in the mood for Tolstoy.,

This review is from: Death Wore a Smart Little Outfit (Paperback)
At those moments, I thank heaven and assorted authors and publishers for mind candy like this charming little book. As light and breezy as Doan in a chiffon party dress with matching pumps, "Death Wore a Smart Little Outfit" prompts you to laugh, roll your eyes, and rethink your wardrobe and eating habits, all while enjoying a fictional visit to the quirky, laid-back, sexually diverse wonderland that is San Francisco. I've read all three of the Doan and Binky books, and although they all amuse, this frothy little thing is the best of the lot.

Silly, Pointless, FABULOUS,
By Terry Haley (Toluca Lake, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Death Wore a Smart Little Outfit (Paperback)
Thank Goddess we live in an age when a writer can set out to do nothing but amuse -- and aim for that limited section of the population who see drag queens and vapid socialites as the indispensible archetypes they are. I've seen more complicated stories on "Full House", but it is perfectly excusable when said story is delivered with such sequin-sparkly dialoge and a characterization so sharp it's as if Charles Busch has materialized in your room to play it for you as you read. Thank you, Mr. Outland.

Fabulously Well Written,
By Dalton Huckaby, Jr. (El Cerrito, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Death Wore a Smart Little Outfit (Paperback)
The first book I've read by Outland, Death Wore a Smart Little Outfit provides the style of reading that makes it a must-read page turner . Even when I wasn't reading the book, I was still thinking about the characters. I am intrigued by the character development and enjoy the adventures!
