Title: I couldn't pick it up
Product review: I tried to get through this mammoth novel, but gave up after about 250 pages. I tried, I tried... but it was so poorly written, the characters so unconvincing, the 'dramatic' scenes so contrived and trivial, that I had to jack it in. I give it 1 star because unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an option for '0 stars'. One of the direst novels I've ever tried to read.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
