Query: This bad book stole from me.

Ironically, the authors described their own crime in their work. Somewhere in this mess of a book they make mention of how there is no worse thief than a bad book. For some reason I did not stop reading this terrible book when my good sense told me I had wasted enough time. Instead, I kept letting the book steal more of my time. Do not make the same mistake. As soon as you find yourself thinking that the book has to get better, just put it down and never return, because the ending offers no redemption. I feel a little like the old Alka Seltzer fellow who could not believe he ate the whole thing, I can't believe I read the whole thing (and I wish that I had not).
