Query: Wretched

Thank God I borrowed this and didn't buy it. Pretentious, far too long, not a single likable character. The students come across more as inmates at a prep school for the emotionally and academically inept rather than an elite progressive college. This book wants its charcters to be dangerous and decadent and depraved and they're just silly, boring, spoiled children. Elizabeth Hand's "Waking the Moon" is a much better, though far more fantastic, novel about college students, mysterious rites, and the results thereof.
