A review by elzabetg
Junk by John Waters, Les Bohem

What, and I say this with all of the fire in my soul, the fuck? I have no idea what this is about and I am over halfway through it.

Let's start with the narration. It's awful. I don't know who John Waters is, but they could have found anybody else to read this book. I can't tell the difference between the characters. He sounds chipper in the way of a late night sales commercial. It's just so very bad. Anything read by John Waters will be avoided by me in future.

Now let's get to this book. I got to chapter 33 before I just gave up. I have no idea what is happening. I don't know who the characters are from moment to moment. I've had to rewind and listen to things over and over so many times because I can't figure out who's talking. Please see my criticism of the narration above.

The characters are boring and gross. The bad guys are boring and gross. Like seriously. How do you rummage around in a dumpster? And the only thing you do is take a bird bath in a sink. Like I know you're running from murderers but jeez Louise dude. They can track you by your smell now

Life is too short to read boring books. I don't even know why I bought this. Maybe it was cheap but yuck.

Zero stars
