it's a fast read but you'll undoubtedly be pissed off the entire time due to the sheer amount of horrid.

Jesus, this is awful.

It isn't just the boring story, uninteresting characters or preposterous lameness. It is the low quality of the writing. I feel like I am reading some sixteen year olds fan fiction; it grates on my every nerve.

This makes Eragon look like a work of genius.

I genuinely came in to this trying to like the book. I've been reading a lot of YA vampire trash and figured I could at least sit through Twilight, but this woman simply can not write. I'm pretty sure I have middle school writing assignments with superior prose.

Also, knowing what happens and how awful it is makes every piece of exposition turn my stomach. I almost vomited on page one when she told us how this town is perpetually overcast.

I would happily fail to find a digital copy of Twilight.

the most annoying thing about the book is that we are inside her head and all her insipid thoughts are in the book to be read.

it wouldn't have been a bad series if it wasn't for Bella's complex.

Best book was when we were in Jacobs head for awhile, only because we were finally out of Bellas!
