Query: god awful reading

I initially downloaded this book thinking that since it was from Fitzgerald's and I had read the Great Gatsby and liked it, I'd like this one as well. Boy was I wrong. I kept reading hoping that it would get better but I found it just awful the more I read. At least I got it free and didn't have to pay for it otherwise I'd be even more upset. If you like main characters who seem not to have a purpose and spend their entire days wondering about their existence and doing absolutely nothing at all then this book is for you. Also, if you're a diehard F.Scott Fitzgerald fan and absolutely love all his writing then this book is for you. If you like your characters to have a purpose even if it's only on the printed page then stay away from this one. I don't care if it's supposedly semi autobiographical, what a waste of time.
