Review title: So overrated I can't believe it
Product review: I heard this book was "life-changing" and the only thing life-changing about it is that it is so long & tedious to get through, I now have less life to live! This book should have been edited down to half the length. The writing isn't even that compelling, although there are the occasional laugh-out-loud passages, but boring and pedantic for the greater part. The characters are two dimensional and very predictable, which significantly weakens the plot.I didn't mind the political thread running through, but again, where was the editor? Everything about the book was too repetitive and heavy handed. I just cannot imagine how this book could be so popular.
