"Alas, poor Satan. He's not happy. No one seems to like or understand him; people have got him all wrong. And his relationship with God is a hostile one. Unloved and misunderstood, he's come back to Earth in search of a psychotherapist; he's prepared- if cured- to deliver the all-important Great Answer.In Jeremy Leven's wildly original comic novel, we follow the Prince of Darkness through his seven amazing therapy sessions. And we watch him grow increasingly well adjusted while his therapist, the unfortunate Dr. Kassler, descends deeper and deeper into hell."

This is a very, very good book. It's somewhat like a cross between Catch 22 and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy in terms of style and tone. Very highly recommended!

Just thought I'd check in to see what everybody's favorite books of 2015 were. I'm looking for some ideas for my next read.

Just finished these...

It took me a bit to get into The Goldfinch. I started it a while back, but stopped reading it and let it sit on the shelf for a while. Glad I came back to it. Excellent book.

The Girl on the Train has some similarities with Gone Girl. Has a pretty good twist, but it was kind of a depressing book.

Modern Romance was a pretty quick read. Toed the line between both serious and funny subject matter. I liked it.


Now onto these...

All the characters were so easy to hate. I still found myself rooting for Rachel's drunk ass. :russ:

Pretty much. The more that was revealed about each character, I was like, damn none of these people have any redeeming qualities.
