Title: Really?
Review: This book came very highly recommended to me. I'm only halfway through it, but based on the rave recommendation and reviews I have to say I'm disappointed. I find that the characters are incredibly pretentious. The tortured writer theme is tired. The situations presented throughout this book are very stereotypical. Rich lawyer dad who cheats on wife, wife who spends his money, rebellious trust fund hippie daughter, tortured writer and his tortured writer father. Gag me. I agree with another reviewer about way too many pop culture references...it is tiresome. And the sex scenes are just plain old gratuitous and uninteresting. I'm still gonna finish it though...I'm just waiting for the good parts to come along, I mean, there has to be something good in this book after all the reviews. We'll see.
