Title: The Worst Couple In The World
No longer content to just be Snappigram sensations, folk hop singers Zeke and Angelique are ready to move up from coffee house performances to the big stage. With songs like “Uh Huh, Future Baby Mama” and “Don’t Worry About the Bills, Little Missus” there’s pretty much no way they can fail.
But if their musical career takes off, will it leave their love behind?
This satirical novella about an over-the-top fame hungry duo is for fans of David Sedaris and Don DeLillo.

Zeke and Angelique really are the worst couple in the world. but not necessarily for the reasons you may think.
This is an over the top look at modern society, especially social media fame, and how fickle it can be. And its a perhaps cynical look at how Instagram influencers attempt to get free stuff!
It's definitely not your typical story, and although I'm never sure if I get satire, I could tell this was quite clever and its very amusing.
There are assorted lyrics to Angelique and Zeke's songs, nothing that I would ever imagine wanting to listen to but it adds to the quirkiness of this novella.
The story moves along at a quick pace, mirroring the trends nowadays for there to always be a next big thing, and just about all the characters are larger than life, and exaggerated to bring home the authors point. And wait until you meet Zeke's family!!
I found this to be a very quick story to read, and one I really did enjoy, and after reading I Will Follow Him, shows to me another side to this clearly imaginative writing.
Thank you to the author for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
