Title: I can not express how terrible this book is . . .
Review: Every copy of this book should be gathered up, loaded onto a boat, taken to the middle of the ocean, weighted down, and chucked overboard so that no more unsuspecting readers will have to endure it. It's just that awful. The diagloue is forced, the characters are flat and unappealing and contrived, and the story just goes on . . . and on . . . and on . . . with no end in sight. But the absolute worst aspect of this book is the author's never exhausted supply of truly horrible puns. It's not cute. It's not funny.I've seen a lot of reviews comparing this book to Bridget Jones Diary, and insisting that if you like BJD, you'll like this book. You won't. This book is nothing like Bridget Jones Diary, other than that the protaganist is a British woman. I'm not saying that every book has to be a carbon copy if BJD to be readable; I just want to make it clear that this does not belong in the cute, funny British chick book category.
Is the review positive or negative?
