A review by sleightoffeet
Consumed by David Cronenberg

1.0

I feel as if I must be missing something. So many people had such wonderful things to say about this book. I don't see what any of the fuss is all about.

Oftentimes a book will start off slowly and then towards the middle it picks up speed, however, this book is the opposite. It started off interesting, albeit shocking, with cannibalism and a mystery as to why.... how can someone make this boring.

At around the halfway point, I just couldn't take anymore. With the introduction of North Korea and the insect religion, I was lost.

I hate not finishing a book, but I just couldn't take it anymore.
