No, no, no... I have the best one for this topic. The one that has seared in my brain, though perhaps because it happens to be the most recent, is the newest sensation out there. You know of whom I speak... E.L. James, author of 50 Shades of Grey. I will take the formulaic plots of James Patterson and vulgar language of others. But, I simply cannot choke down juvenile, poorly written, unimaginative (and uninteresting, unrealistic, etc) characters in the work James has created. Over the course of my life I've read thousands of books and have finished all but a handful (what can I say, I hate wasting money) but there came a time when I couldn't consume another word of this dribble.
Sidenote: Thanks for the 'heads up' on Richard Castle, I'm looking forward to trying his works.
