Great quotes from somewhere in the middle of a book: The Christopher Moore edition

Bloodsucking Fiends by Christopher Moore

If you're looking for a book to while away the hours this Thanksgiving weekend, you could do worse than pick up Christopher Moore's Bloodsucking Fiends: A Love Story. He's got a marvelous description in it of grocery store workers bowling with frozen turkeys on the night shift. Happy Turkey Day, y'all. 
Bloodsucking Fiends
By Christopher Moore
Simon & Schuster, 2009 (Reprint)
Genre: Adult Fiction, Paranormal

A collective gasp rose from the crew as the fourteen-pound, self-basting, fresh-frozen projectile of wholesome savory goodness plowed into the soap bottles like a freight train into a chorus line of drunken grandmothers.

From Bloodsucking Fiends: A Love Story by Christopher Moore

I spent two decades helping companies like Bell Labs, Juniper Networks, and a genetic testing company that was later acquired by CVS translate some of the world’s most complicated concepts into actionable, understandable English. Now I'm working on a different problem -- helping parents raise the next generation of critical thinkers. The first book in my Caterpickles Parenting Series, What’s That, Mom?, focuses on how to use public art to nurture children’s curiosity in the world around them. My next book will focus on science, and how parents without a science degree can answer their curious child's questions without enrolling in a college level refresher course.
