Query: I couldn't even finish it.

This book had a decent beginning but once they got to the 'ruins' it was no longer worth reading. I tried to keep plodding along but eventually I just skipped ahead to find out if anything changed in the plot. When I found out the answer to that question, I removed my bookmark and put it on a pile of stuff to donate to charity. The charitable thing might just be to recycle the paper and save some poor fool from wasting time that could have been spent reading a better book. If this book were a piece of music, it would be the same low note played over and over again for 10 hours. Monotonous and dreary.
