Query: If there was less than one star I would give it to this book

I have recently become more selective in buying books, but James Patterson was an author whose novels I enjoyed and would like to have in my library. I was discussing his new book in the library and it was suggested to me to read the library copy first before buying. The better suggestion would have been to not waste my time. What happens to all these authors who write such entertaining novels? Why do they feel they have to change such a successful procedure for something new. When the winds blow is terrible. Take my suggestion. Do not bother to read.
