Book Reviews of No One Belongs Here More Than You: Stories
Book Review: No one belongs here more than you
Summary: 1 Stars
Too quirky for me. After the first two stories, which are a bit weird and somewhat disturbing, I hoped the stories would get better but didn't. The narrator seemed so desperate and hung up on her sexuality. I kept hoping for something to change - it didn't. So, because of some favorable reviews,I moved on to "How To Tell Stories To Children", but nothing was different, more predictability and mundane. I tried to like the book but couldn't and finally had to put it down.Book Review: The only thing I liked about this book is the cover art.
Summary: 1 Stars
I picked this book up on a trip overseas, made it through three of the short stories, and then slipped it in the seat pocket in front of me, never intending to touch it again. If you'd like to read something that makes you want to slit your wrists, this is the book. The writing is fine, but the characters and stories are disturbing and annoying and not in any way relatable. I'm all for escapism, but this is just grim and pointless. Do. Not. Bother.Book Review: i can't understand why this book gets such high ratings...
Summary: 1 Stars
i thought this book was absolutely terrible. the entire time i read this book all i could think was "is the main narrator mentally retarded". i honestly have no idea how people find this book funny or charming. i found it depressing.
everyone else seems to think the exact opposite of me, and i can't figure out why. i had such high hopes for this book after reading the reviews and was extremely disappointed with what i read.
Book Review: HI MIRANDA
Summary: 1 Stars
Hi Miranda - I know you are reading this, because you are bored with the 5 star reviews, and are compelled to know what a 1 star reviewer thinks. Too bad - I really give you 6 stars. But I recommend to everyone that they buy the audio CD pack instead of the book, because your voice doubles the pleasure. Thanks for the weirdness, Miranda!
