Shelves: mystery, hiaasen

Rarely have I found an author that has made me laugh out loud so many times in one book. Hiaasen has done that for me in the books of his I have read. I love his wit and dry humor.
This is a great story about two lottery ticket winners in Florida. One is a young black woman that works in a vet's office and loves animals (keeps an aquarium full of 45 baby turtles that she saved) and the other is a redneck, white supremacist that doesn't feel like sharing the $28 mil., especially with a "negro".

We always enjoy “discovering” a new author, and when a friend lent us “Lucky You”, with the comment “irreverent, but funny”, we dove into it with pleasurable anticipation. It’s odd when you set out not even knowing a book’s genre, but the novel soon enough revealed itself to be sheer humor, with just enough of a light mystery to create a little suspense along the way. The plot was fairly original – two dumb, petty criminals named Chubb and Bode Gazzer, hit the lottery for $14M, only to learn another winner named JoLayne Lucks, a plucky veterinarian’s assistant, also has a winner worth the same amount. They decide to steal her ticket before cashing theirs as a way to amass a fortune to startup their own white supremacist paramilitary. Their fears of a “NATO attack from the Bahamas” gives you an idea of their mental state! When a journalist, Tom Krome, is sent to interview JoLayne, and learns of her fate, he joins with her to dog the criminals and get justice without even notifying the cops. Meanwhile, Tom’s editor, Sinclair, is sent to the Lucks’ home town of Grange, Florida, where he gets involved with some religious fanatics who sell observations of a Madonna statue that occasionally “weeps” (on command), a brake fluid road stain that supposedly looks like Jesus, and a “stigmata” man who has actually drilled holes in himself to display for donations. One soon gets the drift that the light plot is little more than an excuse to parade about all these incredible characters! That the outcome was fairly predictable, including a light romance, is no deterrent, as the entertainment value rarely quits as the pages turn.

We’d say our friend’s mini-review was right on, and would recommend Hiaasen as sort of a male version of Janet Evanovich, but without the serial nature of just one leading character; and also similar to the “Cat Who” series, though, thankfully, not as light and fluffy! Enjoy!

I was thinking about Carl Hiassen/Elmore Leonard books, trying to remember which ones I'd read...it's proven challenging. The story descriptions don't help much because, let's face it, the plots are all primarily the same--some sort of mystery set in Florida involving a hard-luck hero and a zany cast of secondary characters, with just enough plot twists to keep you turning the pages. Don't get me wrong, these are great books for what they are--fun summer reading. If you're looking for complex ch...more

Lucky You is pure fun. The setup is simple: there are two winning tickets for a $28 million dollar Florida lottery jackpot. One is held by JoLayne Lucks, a reserved African-American woman who wants to use the money to buy a piece of undeveloped land for preservation. The other is held by Bodean Gazzer, a paranoid white supremacist who wants to use the money to start a militia to fight against (in his words) Negros, Cubans, and NATO.

It's like taking a 'John Grisham' plot about white racists with black victims, and making a somewhat humorous parody of it. The humor is very intentional but it is often over-the-top.

JoLayne Lucks is a black woman who has just won the lottery. Unfortunately for her, there are two winners and the other half of the ticket just so happens to belong to two white supremacists.

When Chub and Bode, our two racist knuckleheads, find out that the other winner is a black woman, they violently break into her home and steal her half of the ticket from her.

Ms. Lucks then hires the services of a journalist-turned-detective Tom Krome, who happens to be quite attractive, but a ladies' man with a string of scorned women behind him.

Carl Hiaasen, the author, places his story in a Florida town where the residents could qualify as mental asylum patients. The religious ones take their beliefs to another level, the ones who cheat tourists out of their money, are very good what they do and the teenagers are everything but productive citizens.

The author injects almost every sentence with humor which can get a bit tiresome, but it does its job. It makes you love every character.

In spite of myself, I sympathized with the two poor rednecks and wanted one of them to steal the heart of the busty, blonde waitress he so desired.

There's also a light romance between out laidback 'hero' JoLayne and her 'reluctant knight' Tom. Very many will roll their eyes at this predictable cliche, but hey, lighten up a little! It could happen :)

For its extremely lighthearted nature while dealing with a serious topic such as 'white supremacy and its causes', I give this book 3.5 stars! I recommend it to every sensitive person who has ever passed over 'A Time To Kill' by John Grisham in the bookstore and opted to buy a refreshing milkshake instead. And that is no insult!

Eventually, a a Hooters waitress, a surly gas-station clerk, Tom's supervisor, a crack ATF agent, a Mafia money launderer, Tom's estranged wife who refuses to give him a divorce, a Judge's wife that Tom had an affair with, the angry and pissed off Judge who know wants to make a lesson of Tom, and a half-dozen people who traffic in road-side miracle shows ALL get involved to lesser or greater degrees.

Most of the humor comes from Bodean and Chub's formation of their army, and from various Florida wild-life incidents. Kind of also true about the danger and thriller aspects. Since the lottery winnings, at this stage, are a pair of tickets, you get a few tense moments realizing that a particular heavy downpour could destroy $28 million dollars. There is enough sustained momentum for the first 2/3s to keep you going. All of last 1/3 is something like a wash-out, very little about it is more than a simple wrapping up with very little pop that exceeds something that had previously happened. One stare down that makes for just about the climax of the book has less impact that a message left scribbled on a wall, and etc. About a hundred pages in, Hiaasen seems to notice he is being verbally polite for a white supremacist and so lampshade hangs the n-word-less Bode and gets to it. That's almost more interesting as a literary technique than the book's plot is as a chase-and-fetch book.

First Hiaasen I have read. Had it for a bit, about five years, along with a small stack of others of his I bought at a discount store. Took me three or four days to read, which seems kind of long considering the length and density, but pulls a fairly large cast and several subplots: except many of the characters are just there, Dave Barry-like, to be humorous asides, and most of the plots look scripted to make visual cutaways if a movie ever showed up. Still, not bad. Really it isn't. Only laughed out loud once. Only quietly chuckled a dozen times. Kept me interested, though, until that final third when the house of cards is set-up but has too long allotted to its fall. Only three-stars because a) several of the "keep you interested" subplots, as said, went nowhere except down weird sideroads and b) I think I would ultimately rather read something by Elmore Leonard [and/or something even darker, like the humorous but dark writings of Joe Lansdale].

Will read another Hiaasen (likely Strip Tease) but if that goes the way of this one, will probably give most of my others away and only keep three or so in my collection.(less)

I figured I'd read it and then suggest it to my 11 year old (if it was an okay read). This is not a kid's book; this is an adult novel and unlike his adolescent fiction (which was good), I found this to be just juvenile adult humor.

First, while I thought the premise of Hoot was good (kids trying to save the owls and the environment); I found the premise here (an adult also trying to save a piece of land from development only this time it is for turtles) to just be repetitive. Doesn't Hiaasen have any other plot ideas? I mean really, we age the characters, throw in a bit more sex and violence, change Pancake house to mob boss, and owls to turtles and the new novel is ready to go.

As if the absurdity of the theft of the lotto ticked by white trash supremists and the introduction of the mafia wasn't enough, Hiaasen felt it was necessary to add in the abduction of the Hooters waitress. However, the whole kidnapping scene was ridiculous. She is driving the car, she knows that all he has is a screwdriver, and both her dad and boyfriend live near Hooters. So, why is it exactly that she doesn't drive to Tony or her parent's house and start honking the horn? Yeah, she might get stabbed by the screwdriver, but she isn't going to get raped or killed. Instead, she willing drives him ALL THE WAY TO THE KEYS???? Total garbage. I get that Amber was necessary to the plot later (and the return of the 2nd lotto ticket), but Hiaasen needed a better way for her to get there.

Another unnecessary (and stupid) plot twist was the whole excursion to the keys. If they want to escape, why not head to Tallahasse first to get the winnings? One of the tickets is rightfully theirs; wouldn't the whole thing have made more sense if they got that money first? I get that they have to wait on Jolaynes ticket and that they shouldn't collect the first batch of dough together, but why are they heading to the Keys instead of to Tallahasse? Oh yeah, because Hiaasen wanted to strand the bad guys on an island and get to rant about vultures later. Again, just garbage.

I think Hiaasen was trying to add some literary value by attemping to engage in a race discussion. However, I found each and every time that he brought it up to be stereotypical and shallow. We have the white trash supremists who are extremely offensive and we have suspicious Jolayne who rags on Tom for never having had a black girlfriend. Tom, on the other hand, is all eager and never once considers that maybe there are some negative social implications to this endeavor. I really just lacked any sort of complexity in the discussion.

I was also floored that both the Judge and Bernard Squires thought he could retire on $250K. I know this written in the 90s. But really, $250K would not allow anyone to retire to the Bahamas in an upper middle class life style since oh, say 1930!

Finally, Moffit was another necessary character (for the plot) but totally unbelievable. Why wouldn't he just have his ATF friends take out the bad guys? If they had the VHS tape and the evidence of injury to both JoLayne and Chub and Bade and they arrested Chub and Bade and found two lotto tickets on them, wouldn't that be enough? Why is it better for him to help them along in ways that could get him in trouble and then conveniently leave so they can muck about and then come back just in time to collect the VHS tape and get rid of Squires? Ugh...just all to convenient and weird and unbelievable.

I know this is stupid, but I was also annoyed at the spelling of cigarettes throughout. He uses "cigaret" (which according to my kindle version of the OED is an acceptable spelling, I grant you) and every time I saw it I wanted to scream.

Really, there was very little redeeming about the book. There were a few cute moments (and opportunistic set-ups), but the entire thing was mostly just rambling unbelievable nonsense. If it was 150 pages (instead of almost 500) it would have been okay.(less)
