The Book of Lies by Brad Meltzer

1.0

I really don't know how this book made it to publication. It is a concept that has been done before - and much better - with a 'Superman' twist. It even references [b:The Da Vinci Code|968|The Da Vinci Code (Robert Langdon, #2)|Dan Brown|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1303252999s/968.jpg|2982101] in an "That only happens in books..." sort of way, but then moves forward in the same vein despite saying that. Characters repeat themselves, narration repeats itself and the story is slow and plodding. Then about 3/5 of the way through it seems to end...then keeps going. Arg. It was tedious. I hate to quit on books. I always think "Maybe the ending will make it all worthwhile. Nope, not this time. If you're reading it and annoyed with it...just quit. It's not worth it.
