Cute. Weird. Fun. Strange. Off the wall. As mysteries go, I've read better, but not many funnier or stranger. Think Dave Barry's Tricky Business featuring a stuffed squirrel, a crazy Russian immigrant, and a taxidermist, and you've got Pipsqueak.

It's as if Chuck Palahniuk and David Sedaris set out to wrote a Bukowski style, tongue in cheek mystery. It's full of many twists and turns, colorful characters and a pretty in depth look into the world of taxidermy. I actually learned a lot. Brian Wiprud really did his research. It was a nice, quick, fun read. I've already ordered the second book!

I LOVE this series! It takes a warped sense of humor to write mysteries about a taxidermist, but they are FUN!
