MY RANKING OF ROACH-CHARACTER ORIENTATED BOOKS
1. KOCKROACH FROM “KOCKROACH” BY TYLER KNOX
VERY SELFISH. VERY INDULGENT. GREEDY TO AN UNBELIEVABLE AMOUNT. INCONSIDERATE. FILTHY. VERY ROACHY. RUNS FOR SENATE. TALKS IN PHRASES HE LEARNED FROM HUMANS AROUND HIM. VERY NICE.
2. SAM BARATA FROM “MR. SMITH AND THE ROACH” BY J.J. DiBENEDETTO
VERY CONSIDERATE AND POLITE AND CHEERY. HAS A BRITISH ACCENT. WEARS PINK BUNNY SLIPPERS. IS JUST A VERY, VERY OVER SIZED AMERICAN COCKROACH. WAS MADE IN A LAB. VERY ROACHY. I LIKE HIM A LOT. HE IS VERY CUTE ...
3. NUMBERS FROM “THE ROACHES HAVE NO KING” BY DANIEL EVAN WEISS
DRIVEN BY RAGE AND SEX AND A LONGING TO BE WITH HIS COLONY. VERY SMART. QUOTES THE BIBLE OFTEN. ROACH. I LIKE HIM A LOT, HE WAS ONLY REACTING TO THE CIRCUMSTANCES, BUT THE BOOK’S ENDING IS ITS DOWNFALL FOR ME... BESIDES THE MURDER PART. HE IS QUITE ROACHY.
HONORABLE MENTION:
GREGOR SAMSA. I LIKE THIS GUY. I THINK HE IS A BEETLE, THOUGH.
