The Silent Bullet Book

This book was just - it was awful.

The first 200 pages was full unremitting boredom, bland stories about very uninteresting and unappealing and one-dimensional characters and with no drive at all. The last 70 pages had brief splashes of interest - I liked the sections about Cartwright - but ultimately it felt like a dreary waste of time. I had to force myself to pick up the book every time.

I have disliked books because they were dull, because I hated the characters, because there was no beauty in the language or they were badly written. I've disliked books because they had no plot or no characterization or terrible dialogue. This is one of those rare books where I think I dislike it because it fulfills every one of those categories.
