Title: Ugh
Review: I borrowed this book from the library and I wish I could tell the staff to remove it from the shelves, this book is so bad. I got about half way through and realized that I could barely recall the plot, let alone the qualities of the characters, and this was a red flag to quit wasting my time. Nobody has a personality. Even when they had outbursts, they were wooden and monotone. The dialogue is cringeworthy, stilted and contrived. She attempts to use the character's awkward monologues as exposition and it's just painful to read. If one of the characters said, "that's another way of saying...." One more time...ugh! And what 18 year old barely out of high school lands a job with a high profile politician, managing his office staff?? The dog's death scene was awful. Not believable. Pointless tangents abound--"Bibbity Bop". For crying out loud? Do NOT try this book unless you are trying to make time stand still. It is that boring.
Is the review positive or negative?
