A review by hisdarkmaterials
The Inner Circle by Brad Meltzer

2.0

Well, I'm stumped. Although I enjoyed this book, I enjoyed it the same way I enjoy a bag of crisps. I didn't relish or delight in it. It was just something to nibble at when boredom threatened. I've never read a book that was so long but about NOTHING!!! Holy Christ the most action in the book happened in the last 100 pages. I cannot believe this was a NYT best seller!! Come on! This book smacked of an author indulging themselves without caring about the quality of their work. This is brain candy people, it won't thrill you or challenge you, it's not even beautifully written. The characters are pretty weak and the humour is dire.
