Title: An author completely obsessed with himself (faults and all)
Review: I wanted very badly to like this book. The first chapter was excellent. There was so much promise. I even got excited when I found characters from the book with their own homepages. There are so many ideas that I love in this book that I was sad to see them wasted. It is intense and spooky... but thats about the only thing going for it. In total I found it to be a mess. There was no direction whatsoever. There was no character development (the main character is so frustratingly oblivious you will want to strangle him).With much of the books lifted from what I attribute to Stephen King novels and The House of Leaves by Danielewski I say read the originals. At least those writers are not completely full of themselves.
Is the review positive or negative?
