Review title: Don't waste your time!~
Product review: Ok, so here's what happened. I bought the book based on reviews about 2 years or so ago.1. Started reading it.2. It's mush.3. Soap opera.4. Threw it away.5. I wrote a review saying that. Several people attacked my review. More than one compared the book to the Bible. (as in, "what are you going to do next, throw out the Bible and Shakespeare?")6. I deleted the original review, then thought, why should an HONEST review not be available to customers? Should not be bullied into not telling it like it is.There are lots of books to read.This is not one of them.Don't be mislead by the semi-positive reviews.Check out the people who say "I read it as a teenager, shouldn't have tried to read it again." What they're really saying is "don't buy it, don't waste your time."Or check out the review by the US Marine, retired, who gave it a generous 2 stars, and said, "it ain't anything like this"And, then try "Taliban" by Ahmed Rashid, or "A thousand Splendid Suns"
