with you op. First, I'd like to say that the reason I hate this book is
not because it is 807 pages (believe me I have read a 1204 page book in
three days) or because of the sexual content in the book (although most
of it was unneccessary). The reason I hate this book is because it
sucked! I was astonished that it got so many great reviews. The plot was
extremely slow and dull. And the whole story seemed unoriginal, like
I've heard it many times before. The author has been praised for his
amazing characters and personally I found them flat, boring and
predictable. They seemed to have no original thoughts or feelings and
some of their actions were unrealistic in human nature. I felt as if
everyone had a blank expression on their face and they were speaking in
monotone. This book really disapointed me and it put a mark on my good
reputation. I had never stopped reading a book in the middle of the
story, no matter how bad. Well, this one was a first. Reading became a
pain and I avoided it when I had this book (and if you knew me you would
think I was mentally ill or something). I think this is a horrible
author and you would do good to avoid his work. Try Tolkien or Anne
Bishop if you want something more intricate than Harry Potter (which is
still awesome, by the way). They are my two favorite authors. |
