Bad Euphemism Alert

So I picked up this chicklit title in the Kindle Big Deal (which is going downhill and fast, IMO) called Must Love Otters.  Sounds promising.  I love otters.

Until in the first chapter, the author writes something that should have been my clue to put the book down.

Panty Tarantula - as in a woman's unshaved pubic area.

Run away now.

I read on for awhile, but it didn't get any better.

Urk.

And now I am visualizing the Muppet Show Banana Boat sketch in a way that I really never wanted to.

That could be fun in an MST3K kind of way...

Sadly the book did not venture into "so bad it's good" category, and I gave it up.

Yes, that which cannot be unread...

Boo.

Been reading the Vampire Academy books. Not great lit, but entertaining.

Yes, exactly.
