A review by lindasdarby
Flimsy Little Plastic Miracles by Ron Currie Jr.

1.0

This book was terrible. After 10 pages I thought it might be okay. 50 pages into it I decided the main character was a jerk alcoholic and his girlfriend was selfish and didn't really love him. It was so dark. I skimmed the rest of the book. Why? I'm not sure. I feel like I need to apologize to myself for staying up until midnight reading this garbage. The chapter on computers taking over the world were skimmed over quickly. The chapters about his father dying were sad and the chapter about him, his girlfriend, his fake suicide frustrated me. I feel like you need to like the main character in a book - at the least - to enjoy a book. This book got rave reviews. I am beginning to wonder if I can trust reviews. This book well and truly sucked the life out of me for a few hours don't let it do the same to you.
