This could be the worst book I've ever read. At some point even a train wreck gets so bad that you want to turn your head and stop looking. The book starts out boring, gets hilariously bad, offensively bad, then probably another kind of bad that I haven't even imagined (I'm still reading it). I teach English to Vietnamese kids. This book is making me question whether or not they should bother learning the language at all. It's the kind of thing you can really only read on a dare. Thanks a lot, Jim.
