The first sentence of this book was sufficiently fantastic that it made me create a new tag for awesome first sentences. Unfortunately, the rest of the book completely and totally sucked. Also, she ruined the first sentence a few pages later. Yeah, it’s that kind of book – what you thought was good turns into total shite.

When you read a lot of good books you can forget what a difference good writing makes. I have to thank Charlaine Harris for reminding me just how excrementally bad writing can be.
