What I Did for Love

Tales of a Rascal

This book is the best book of all time. Move over Bible, Koran, Torah, and War and Peace!!! Hello Bobert B 😍 this picture book provides immense visual aids for the psalms being given.

 Not only is this a must read, but it awakens something very deep inside of you and makes you wish that Robert Blake did not leave us at the fresh age of 89. 🕊️🕊️ From tales of Darla and Janet to Natalie and Annie, Bob regales the reader with nonstop action, romance, and self discovery. 

Although it’s riddled with typos and grammar that would make Dickens roll in his grave, this novel is a reflection on human beings as a hole. It goes into the nitty gritty of the sets of films such as Tell Them Willie Boy is Here and Humoresque. 

The descriptions that the reader receives can only be described as epic, which is coincidentally our second favorite four letter word after “heroin.”

Well, this work of art has nothing if not anything. The authors voice shines through in his beautifully crafted sentences such as: “Shift over to Alaska… I was in the stockade. I was going to be charged with statutory rape, and everything they said was true.” 

Although we wish he had gone into more detail about his big hit blockbuster “Money Train,” the stories he tells about the behind the scenes of Little Rascals makes up for it three-fold. 👌👌👌

From cover to cover, coast to coast (que Bella!!!) Blake tells the same story again and again (and again) with the same typos and Nutley-esque demeanor and accent, although he grew up in Burbank. Just like Steve Martin, he never hesitates to remind us that he was born a poor black child, with quotes such as “i’m not saying I know what it’s like to be black, but I’m goddamn sure saying I know what it’s like not to be white.” How politically correct!!! (Just like the beards he mentions in chapter 8) 

In all seriousness, this book is of poor quality, at times — which are quite often — racist, misogynistic, sexist and at the very least problematic and controversial. We highly recommend this book to read ironically as it is amusing to read so long as one doesn’t take it too seriously.
