Worst Books Read in 2011
4. Leaving the Atocha Station by Ben Lerner
Wonder if Ben Lerner points to his own book when teaching his students what a Mary Sue is?
5. The Man Who Couldn’t Eat by Jon Reiner
6. Boneshaker by Cherie Priest
7. Stolen World by Jennie Erin Smith
8. The Black Company by Glen Cook
9. A Visit From the Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan
10. The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher by Kate Summerscale
Less whimsical than the title would suggest...

UGHHHHHHHAL;SDFJSAKDLF A VISIT FROM THE GOON SQUAD – I loathed this book as well. LOATHED. Thank you, thank you, thank you for not just going with the masses and honestly reviewing it as terrible. I’m going to have to read your review now that I’ve posted this ridiculous comment making me look like a crazy person.
