Title: I've Lost Respect for Amazon
Product review: That this book was picked by Amazon's editors as the best book of the year reveals one of two things. Either the editors are completely taken in by the marketing machine surrounding this book, or they simply don't know what good literature is. Don't believe me; read for yourself. All you have to do is get past the first sensational fifteen pages to know that this writer has a lot of problems with his prose. Repeating a word over and over again does not make for style--unless you're an undergraduate. He also rides on the back of slamming the twelve-step program, the only part of this book with any substance. The problem is, I can give you that message in three words instead of 400-plus: Do It Yourself. Wake up Amazon editors, please.
