2006 book 131

J. Robert Lennon's The Funnies
This novel--more than a little inspired by the dullest of dull, cloying-est of cloying comic strips, Family Circus, is all about what happens when the eccentric cartoonist patriarch of a very dysfunctional family dies, leaving his strip to his artist son. It was pretty good, so I'll give it a B. Oh, I forgot to grade those last two books, so let's give the first a B+ and the second an A-.
