Query: The Worst

Recommended to me by a friend who clearly is a romance-book-lover. Insipid story, amateurish writing, completely uninvolving in every way. I guess there is a market for this kind of treacle but it isn't me. On the bright side, though I hated the book, at least it convinced me to finish my own. If a hack like James Patterson can make millions calling himself a writer, so can I!
