Mister B. Gone by Clive Barker
1.0
Clive Barker has been one of my favorite authors since I picked up his Books of Blood series as a teenager. I purchased this book shortly after it came out and have been trying to read it ever since. I kept starting and then putting it down, then trying again because I can't stand to NOT finish a book. I'm officially throwing the towel on this one and am seriously disappointed.
Another reviewer mentioned the juvenile repetition by the demon narrator and I thought "Yeah! That's what was bothering me." It's so unlike CB's previous work and not in a good way. I even skipped to the last few pages but those couldn't hold my interest either. I finally decided I just don't care enough about the character, despite his weak attempts at shocking the reader.
