11. There is No Dog by Meg Rosoff


What if God were a teenage boy whose main priority involved seducing his beautiful creations. It actually would make a lot of sense to the pessimist individuals out there. There is no creature alive more indifferent to the feelings of others then some teenage boys. Bob became God of Earth because his mother won it for him in a poker game. He then willfully neglects it as he searches the world for ladies he can have sex with. This is a very quirky novel that deals with a lot of heavy subject matter. What touches me the most is when Bob's pet Eck is sentenced to death because Bob mom dealt him away in a poker game. Eck asks the questions every person asks. Why are we born? Why was I created? Book started slow but got more interesting as it went along. 3.5 0ut of 5.
