The Book of Strange New Things by Michel Faber

1.0

---

I was eager to try science fiction and my book club wanted to read it. I kept thinking it would get better...nope. Not only did I grow to really dislike the main character, I was just puzzled by how uninspired and unrealistic the entire story was. I honestly thought the author was going to reveal at the end that Peter had dreamed the entire thing and was actually in a insane asylum or crack house - that would have made the story interesting. No such luck.
