Query: Mediocre writing and too much hype - bait and switch marketing

This book is the definition of literary mediocrity. It's probably not the worse book I've read, but it's certainly not good.But the publishers used some smart marketing to dress the book up in some more intellectual themes of art, religion, conspiracy and enigma. I think that's why many readers are so disappointed.If this book hadn't sold so well, there would not be nearly as many controversial opinions floating around.I think most people -- myself included -- are really more angry at themselves for reading this really worthless book and at other readers for buying so many damned copies. I honestly expected something quite more literary than the action-movie script that it actually was. To me, this felt like a bait-and-switch.
