Title: Language?
Product review: Not good.I normally don't like to dog on other people's work... I mean, what have I done to give me such authority? Maybe it is because I started this book on the tail end of East of Eden. Perhaps it is just because it looks and smells like an epic. I'm not sure, but I do know this, this book reads like a high school sophomore wrote it. There are some times where I literally roll my eyes or shake my head as I read.Basically, I think it is a good premise. Even the plot isn't awful. The biggest complaint I have is with the language and storytelling. Most of the characters are two-dimensional or predictable. They don't shine. The treatment of sexuality is that of a 15 year old... it's overdone, awkward and slightly frenzied.I don't like to give up on books, which is why I am more than halfway done with this one. However, I couldn't guarantee that I will carry on until the end.
