How I Stopped Eating Babies: A Review

I fancy myself a bit of a comedian. I love to tell jokes and be funny. As such, I love to read satire. Some of my favorite authors are satirists including the greatest of them all: Jonathan Swift. You know him from Gulliver's Travels.

I picked up a short story / self help book this week titled "How I Stopped Eating Babies: And Other Admissions of a Recovering Werewolf" by Juan Se Mounstor. The book is admittedly short at only 10 pages. But hey, it was only a buck. I wanted to share this with you so that maybe you could get a good laugh too.
How I Stopped Eating Babies by Juan Se Mounstor

Jaun Se Mounstor, an obvious pen name, presents a quick word of warning to all werewolves who want to break some of their bad habits including urinating on fire hydrants, chasing cars, and eating babies. He had me cracking up from beginning to end.

The book was rather short. I do wish the author would put out a follow up or maybe add some more to this one. In the end, though, you get what you pay for here and maybe a few laughs you didn't pay for.

It's obvious this book is making fun/ribbing the paranormal genre, but also indie publishing in general. It definitely isn't to be taken too seriously. But I guess if you did take it seriously, then that would be on you. Read the story and tell me you would want to try ANY of his self help tips.

You should definitely pick up a copy today.
Get it on Amazon.com here.
