It's not that it was bad, it's just that I wish the tiger had eaten him so the story wouldn't exist.
I read half of it, and felt really impatient the whole time, skipping whole pages, and then I realized that I didn't have to keep going, which is as spiritual a moment as I could hope to get from this book.

It's impossible for me to know whether or not that information is an important part of the plot. I haven't read the book yet. It's not very helpful when people write reviews about books they haven't read entirely. The review just caught me off-guard although I'm still going to give the book a chance.

It reminded me of an artist taking paint brushes and slinging paint on a canvas and then calling it "art". I consider it paint slung o. A canvas and my 8 and 5 yr olds can do that..

And to suggest that you cannot write a review of a book that one has left unread is simply absurd. If the writing was so terrible that one could not make it past the middle of the book (or the first quarter, on my part), then it is perfectly acceptable to write something about your experience with the book.
