1.0

Even if you are able to look past the juvenile prose, the content of this self-described thriller leaves much to be desired. The plot is very typical. An unreliable narrator discovers he's lost his mind while he searches for meaning and love in his life. Filled with flat characters, many, many cliches, informal language, predictable plotlines, and borderline sexist portrayals of any female characters; Supermarket is one of the worst books I've read in a while. It's a shame that the cover design is so eye catching.
