King Kong vs. The Skinny Pirate is a very short story about Blaine, an attorney, and George, an auto mechanic. The two are as different as night and day. Blaine is well dressed and prefers men like him. George is built like a mountain and hairy to top it off.

Blaine and George meet in a bar and since the pickings are slim decide to go home with each other. George knows he’s not Blaine’s usual type. They are both open about how they don’t fit together, but George has a good sense of humor about it. Surprisingly they have a great time together. The rest of this very short story is both of them deciding how to find each other again and whether they should take the chance of dating.

King Kong vs. The Skinny Pirate is an extremely short, short story. In short (see what I did there?), it’s probably too short, and that’s why I took off stars. However, at the same time, I liked the characters. I’d like to give this 3.5 stars, but since I can’t, I’ll give this book, 4 Stars since it doesn’t have any other glaring problems other than it’s too short. ( )
