Dennis J. Rance should feel like a million bucks. After swallowing his pride, dignity, and morals he’s been selected to be Trent Donaldson’s running mate. And, Donaldson’s health being what it is, Rance is envisioning his quick inheriting of the title of President.
Unfortunately, his wife has left him, his press docket leaves him drained, and his running mate is a blathering moron. On top of all that, he hasn’t had a moment to himself since this whole soon-to-be-VP thing began.
So, on his weekly obligatory day off, he decides he deserves some ✨relief✨ from his stress. But when his ✨activity✨ is interrupted by some (frankly, un-American) stray cats, he finds himself reminded of, and drawn to, a fixation from his past: his couch. It helped him before, it’ll help him now. The more he thinks about his luscious leather loveseat, the harder it is turn away.
Little does Rance know, fixations can possess you in more ways than one.
Before we begin: political satire has been a genre as long as politics and politicians have been around. And we all know there’s no way a *real* politician actually participated in salacious activity with an actual couch. But, the joke works. And if a couch joke is a bridge too far for you, given literally everything, leave.
For those of you still here, “Pushin’ Cushions” is *something*. There has never been a book before where I’ve reread lines thinking, “Wait, what did it say?” Clearly, Unfortunate Reads and Valentine nailed the weird factor. I imagine the way I felt while reading some of the descriptions of 🐬 🌽 and couch carnality mirrored the way most people felt when learning the real story behind the parody. This fact, I think, enhances the work. I could not put it down.
Parody or no, this story takes couch 🍆-ing *seriously*, as it should, but readers who think Unfortunate Reads and Valentine aren’t serious in their endeavors may be unpleasantly surprised. So, if you don’t think these two are going to go *all the way* with this story, maybe sit this one out.
Further, toward the end of the book, there are element of dub/non-con and humiliation “enjoyment” that may make some readers uncomfortable. But if you aren’t one of those, take a seat…and enjoy the schadenfreude.
