Was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Saw you liked Paris Trout, and thought you might like my novel since it's also southern and a bit dark (in the same vein as Paris Trout). I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

It was a he, and he actually was their driver while Nabokov was writing Lolita. He drove them to California, if memory serves. He was also an assistant to Dr. Seuss while a student at Cornell and earned a mention in Oh, The Places You'll Go.
