Swamp Donkey, by Thad Staffall, is a story about Beans - a guy who is pretty sure he's a genius, despite not finishing community college or being able to hold a steady job.  At the beginning of the book, he's being interrogated by the police - and it takes several pages to determine exactly why. Beans' use of large words and complex sentences had me laughing, even at the beginning - I liked the character a lot, even when I thought he had made some serious mistakes in his life. As the story progresses, Beans is trying to convince the police that he didn't kill a hooker, and he recounts (again, at the end of a long night of interrogation) exactly what had happened the night before.  As he tells the story, the plot twists and turns - it'll keep you turning the pages to the end!I enjoyed this book, and look forward to more by the author.
