The Hour I First Believed by Wally Lamb

I read through half of it, then fed it to the fireplace. It was so painfully boring.
I bought it because the author has previously been on Oprah's book club, and it was on the best seller's list at Dymocks (Why people why are you buying it :confused:).
Plus it looked remotely interesting being about an infamous high school massacre. I was interested in seeing insight into the lives of the victims etc.
Apparently the author took years and years to write it....but this book was just fail. I think the author is over-rated, and so are his bookssss.

Wuthering Heights, basically I giant waste of my time and sappy beyond belief. I hated the servant Joseph or whatever his name was...how on earth was I supposed to understand what he was saying? Twilight was not too bad as a signular novel but the 2nd was so whiney I wanted to stab Bella. Get over it he's gone!! Oh yes and Thom Rob Smith, his whole form of writing just annoyed me. He writes dialogue like this:

-hey
-Hey man, what's going on?

ARGH!

Bitch. Bitch. Moan. Moan. TWILIGHT. Blah. Blah.

But honestly, yes just because I hear about it everywhere and people call it literature.

I mean WTF.

+ 1 :headbang:

That's my opinion of Twilight as well. Or, at least the series in general. The first Twilight book wasn't so bad, though.

I understand forcing oneself to read through the whole book. But forcing yourself to read through the whole series?
