Meet Rex Parker...

... my new hero. Parker keeps a blog called Pop Sensation, and every couple of days he posts a vintage paperback scan (front and back!), then proceeds to skewer the crap out of it. Or, more rarely, praise it/the writer. His comments are hilarious and dead-on. ("The left nipple. It's like I'm staring down the barrel of a gun.") Even better, Parker sells the stuff he presents, so it's like visiting a real cool used book shop with a sardonic owner, commenting on everything you pick up. It's just pure awesome.

I have no idea who Parker is, but based on his Blogger profile interests (comics, crime fiction, gin, werewolves, grammar) I'd say he's a kindred spirit.
