Title: Is this a joke?!?!
Review: Beyond awful. I can't believe how many people liked this book. The writing was unbearably bad - downright embarrassing in fact. I was relieved to see that there are some people here who agree with me. I really wanted to like the book and the characters, but because it was so boring, transparent and predictable I was unable to even finish. I had to skim over the last 90 pages. I wouldn't have even done that except that a co-worker lent me the book (thank god I didn't spend my own money on it!). It's not that the idea & premise are so bad; it's the insincerity with which it is written that betrays any real depth of emotion. I think it is a sad state of affairs that this a bestseller.And if I wanted to know how to cook a crab dinner, I would have read a cookbook. Boring, boring, boring, boring.
Is the review positive or negative?
