musthafa 's review for:

Whiteout by Ken Follett
1.0

I rarely review the books I read. But perhaps this will serve as a useful warning. Don't read this book. This is the kind of book that convinces people that they too can be a successful writer. For everything about this book is appalling. It has all the usual signs of a by the numbers thriller. But like cheap make up and disguise, the facade peels away quickly. This novel made me understand the true meaning of the words mediocre and amateur. A small plot stretched and prolonged through sheer ineptitude and pseudo professionalism. Maddening enough to cause one to write a grammatically weak review!
