Query: Don't waste your time with this one - IT IS HORRIBLE!

I just finished reading Carriers. I bought it based on the ratings of amazon.com readers but i feel the need to voice my opinion before anyone else wastes $7 on this book. The writing was ridiculous and full of lame cliches like "joey liked monkeys" (that's an actual sentence!). I normally don't notice bad writing which means that this was even worse than bad. the plot itself suffers from way too many characters to the point that you cannot keep track of who's who. the science behind the virus is flawed and the sequence of events seems to have been written by someone with zero experience with viruses or medicine. i cannot stress enough how bad this book is. DO NOT BUY IT. spend your money on one of robin cook's early books or a michael palmer one instead.
