Title: Zzzzzzz
Review: This is one book of probably three in my life that I simply could not finish. It could not hold my interest, and I was not drawn to any of the characters enough to get past the 3/4 point. You know how you and your girlfriends go through your early 20's focused narrowly on yourselves? For outsiders, it's torture to listen to the endless prattle. This reminded me of that phase. We get waaaaay too much detail about the lead characters banal, everyday movements and thoughts, which are compelling only to her. The more interesting book would provide, of course, the fly-on-the-wall perspective on the editor-in-chief's life. As it stands in this book, we only get tiny histrionic bits and glimpses of the most potentially interesting character. It's all just too dull.
Is the review positive or negative?
