...let's say a book, to which you might have a strong blogger reaction, where would I send it?

Laura--
Thanks for considering me as a possible shill to help you sell books, but please realize that there are precious few people who read my site. In fact, I'm just a guy who enjoys writing zany things now and then with the hope of giving my friends a nice hearty chuckle at work. I'm sure you'll be able to cull a few people who will have a "strong blogger reaction" to the book you're responsible for marketing, but unfortunately, I'm not your guy.
If you still feel as though you'd like me to read the book, or future books, please go ahead and forward them to:
My Arse.
Thanks,
The American Mastodon

I'm intensely curious as to what book might cause you to have a strong blogger reaction. And even more curious to know what a blogger reaction would look like to the casual observer.
Dude, you’re my hero. More than that, you’re a great American hero. Believe it or not, you’re walking on air, you never thought you could feel so free-eee-eee. Flying away on a wing and a prayer, believe it or not, it’s just the American Mastodon.
(You should really consider making this your blog’s theme song.)
T.S.: Me too, man. Me too.
Anon: Take that, Empire!
Koopa: Blogs don't have theme songs, Koop. At least...not yet.
