Jeff Bailey Reviews The Evil Men's Book Club by T. C. Schueler

 


The Evil Men’s Book Club by TC Schueler was an absolutely delicious and unique read. I understand that there really is an Evil Men’s Book Club and that this book is based on a ‘true story’ – fabulous. But that’s a story for a later time. Maybe even a movie based on the ‘true story.’ In the book, the requirements for membership are: be evil (tongue in cheek), select an evil book and come to the bar. That’s it. Reading is optional—drinking beer is not. So what kind of evil men? Why - bikers, guerilla warfare, old money, gunrunning, extortion, cultism, kidnapping, PTSD—even St. Nick. This is all presented in great fun and added real enjoyment to the story. What I particularly liked in this read was the dialog and Schueler’s ability to tell the story through dialog rather than describing the scene and action. Loo Spicotti said, ‘Don’t hit that man.’ Rather than 'Spicotti tried to stop them from fighting.' Excellent. I may read it again just for the dialog.
