I ultimately read this book because I needed a book published in 2004 for the 21st Century challenge I was doing, but I had added it to my TBR before then because it sounded interesting. It was! huzzah! Yes, in 2017, the book is a little dated, with its references to America Online accounts, but not so much so that it's distracting. The copy i read must have been taken from his website and collated into chapters because it had "Agent to the Stars - an Online Novel" sprinkled throughout, which was distracting.

The premise is of course silly, but it was a super easy read and this close to the end of the year, when I start to get antsy about finishing up as many books as possible, that's exactly what I'm looking for.
