Gods Behaving Badly
Marie Phillips certainly has a vivid imagination, that's for sure. And it's her imagination that makes GODS BEHAVING BADLY a kind of little engine that could. Does it get knocked off course a bit? Sure. Does it wrap itself up a little too tightly at the end? Yep. Will it end up making a great screenplay and get Phillips a development deal? Abso-freaking-lutely. I loved everything about this darling of a book, which sets the gods of Zeus, Apollo, Aphrodite, etc in a terribly run-down flat in London, watching their powers drain away. It is laugh-out-loud funny (don't even get me started about trees and joggers) and is, therefore, RECOMMENDED.
