The Hive by Gill Hornby
1.0
I could have liked this book, if I have never read a book before, or watched a movie, and knew nothing about the world or relationships. I might have thought this book was refreshing. But, I have done all these things. And I still read this book until the end, like a masochistic twat.
See, I read bad writing, I read bad fanfiction when I was a teenager way too into Harry Potter, but this is worse because someone thought, jolly good (this is the kind of phrasing you can also expect out of this book), people will pay for this. I mean, they have for some of it. And I'm sorry to hear that.
Everything in this book is vapid, from the plot, to all the characters, to all the relationships - which, it astounds me, are called genuine at the end. Anyway, not going to waste more time on this, so I will leave the best comment on this book at the end, which is Oscar Wilde's quote: "the man who could call a spade a spade should be compelled to use one." Take it as you will.
