Trying a new category this time, just for laughs. ;)
Let this book sit in a box and get rained on at the library booksale or buy it for a dollar and find a place to bookcross it. Hmm. Not that tough a choice after all even though I already have a whole bunch of copies on my shelf, not counting my unregistered keeper copy:
More people need to read Christopher Moore. Really. I'm just trying to do my part to spread the word... Did I mention that I really enjoyed this book?
From the author's website:
The birth of Jesus has been well chronicled, as have his glorious teachings, acts, and divine sacrifice after his thirtieth birthday. But no one knows about the early life of the Son of God, the missing years -- except Biff, the Messiahs best bud, who has been resurrected to tell the story in the divinely hilarious yet heartfelt work "reminiscent of Vonnegut and Douglas Adams" (Philadelphia Inquirer).
Verily, the story Biff has to tell is a miraculous one, filled with remarkable journeys, magic, healings, kung fu, corpse reanimations, demons, and hot babes. Even the considerable wiles and devotion of the Saviors pal may not be enough to divert Joshua from his tragic destiny. But theres no one who loves Josh more -- except maybe "Maggie," Mary of Magdala -- and Biff isnt about to let his extraordinary pal suffer and ascend without a fight.
Don't know if this is the correct cover or not. Most of the copies I've picked up had the yellow cover, but this one might have been the newer version. Or not. Either way, it's better than the generic cover.
