Bad Book



Have you ever read a book that just made you mad. Not mad because it ended badly or, it was sad (only my problem), mad because it was just down right stupid and the more you think about it the more you hate it. In fact you hate it so much you want to write a letter to the author telling her what a huge waste of time it was for you to read 500 pages of the most worthless words ever. (This seems very harsh I agree, but it was a really bad book) The characters in the book were very selfish and grew even more selfish as the book went on. To top it all off, the book really had no story to it. It was a book about nothing, which may work for a beloved television show we all know and love, but it does not work for a book. So needless to say do not read The Emperors Children, by Claire Messud. If you have and you loved, I am sorry for this post.

Totally looked into this book a couple weeks ago and considered reading it. Now I won't. :) Thanks!
