Summary: yeah?
Review: i transfered out of harper college awhile back. it is there where i heard a lot about greg herriges. i finally got around to reading the local fiction writer in that area and was dissapointed: lack-luster humor, cliche sentimentality. i heard he likes salinger a lot, and it definity shows that he listened to his creative teacher when he said "copy the greats", but come-on, if i wanted to read salinger at his utmost worst i would pick up a few stories from the uncollected 22. This is the only book that i have read by herriges, i just hope, if i have the courage to get around to it, reading other books by this author will be more beneficial

Summary: So funny I thought I would die!!
Review: Like the other reviewers, I found this book to be so clever and funny that I couldn't help but laugh out loud. On a recent trip to Atlanta, the people on the plane with me must have thought I was crazy. As a music fan and a mystery fan, I found the plot to be totally satisfying. I'm buying this book for all my friends for the holidays.

Summary: His best yet
Review: Of his three sovels so far, The Winter Dance Party is Herriges' best yet. I read it on a plane trip to California and could not keep from laughing out loud. The character Rudy Keen is as original a post-modern protagonist as your likely to meet, and his method of rewriting rock history by using actual events takes storytelling to a higher level. Definitely recommended.
