Miker,
You and I must be the only two guys on the planet who don't
get Elmore Leonard. I have an entire shelf in my library
devoted to his books, all of which are half read. While I
recognize his genius with dialogue, everything else about his
work leaves me cold. I even picked up GLITZ for the second
time (1985, regarded as his breakout novel) a few months ago
and quit about a third of the way through it.
Different strokes.

Leonard. I attempted reading something called GET SHORTY a
long time ago and couldn't even finish it. And that's unusual
for me. I finish nine out of ten that I start.
