"The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao"

This is the charming story of a fat, Dungeons & Dragons-obsessed nerd who falls madly in love with a Dominican prostitute and is eventually brutally beaten and murdered by her husband because of said love-falling. An entertaining enough story, although the last page was a huge cop-out in terms of the book's stinging emotional message. As Junot Diaz himself would say: Dude didn't deserve no Pulitzer.
