Title: Drudgery
Product review: After hearing all the hype about this book, I finally decided to try it for myself. And now I really don't understand why this book got (and continues to get) so much attention.I never knew that I could actually get sick of cliff-hangers at the end of every chapter...until I read this book. The chapters are very, very short. And there are lots of them. The writing style is that of an eighth-grader. It is simplistic and tells more than shows. It does all those things you were taught to avoid doing in order to write well. I've read many, many outstanding books that have never gotten the kind of hype "The Da Vinci Code" has, which is sad.This is clear evidence of the adage that "best-selling" does not necessarily equate to "best written."
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
