" Sometimes, on a Sunday, when I cannot bring myself to do anything more than a few loads of laundry, I find myself on the couch watching a Top Chef marathon. Now... I have already seen the original episode or one that was close enough to it to feel familiar, but I continue to watch anyway. That is how I feel about Spare Change and most Robert Parker novels. I read it Sunday afternoon. Now it is done. In a few days I will not even remember much about Sunny Randall's detecting and emotional angst but it was a relaxing read. "
