From: book reviews Category: Books Date: 07 July 2008 Time: 04:54 PM Review: TRIED, to read this. And was happily surprised as I slalomed thru the pages while eyeballing other punters on the bus (YES i take the bus because I am poor). It starts off ok, funny (ish) and the hyperactive verbs, brand names, stilted dialogues and tremendously out of touch clichepiction of the black rock star (new genre?) wore me out by 150. This is harder than war and peace.
