Has anyone read any of his books?  He is a wild writer.  I just just started "Villa  Incognito".  So far so good, weird, eccentric, wild and out there.

I'm intrigued - what genre would you put it in? Is it fun reading or smart girl reading (i know it can be both, but you know what I mean!)? I guess my point is - dot says she needs some beach reading - to me beach reading is Shopaholic books, not Pride & Prejudice.

I love Tom Robbins. I think Jitterbug Perfume is my favorite. I also liked Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates. I think I will pick up Villa Incognito. Thanks for the mini review, Pepper!

Nope, Tom Robbins.  He's a very quirky author.


I read Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas a few years ago and it was a fun read.  Very weird, but in a good way.  I don't really remember what it's about, but I remember liking it.


Laken--I'd call it good beach reading material.  It's interesting, with a little bit more substance than the Shopaholic books, but not heavy reading at all.
