2.0

An overwritten book with an unsatisfying conclusion. The author spends more time trying to sell the reader on how brilliant the main character is than anything else, while all the while she does inexplicably stupid things. The ending is unsatisfying as everything just seems to fall into place based on either wild coincidence or the stupidity of other characters. Phrases like "his arms were straight, like two stalks of raw asparagus" would be funny if they weren't delivered so self-seriously.
