kitty_kat21 's review for:
The Celestine Prophecy
by James Redfield
I got as far as the second to last chapter when I got the ick majorly and had to stop. A little girl was introduced in the story and that's when the author decided to fly his creep flag.
There is a strange passage where a side character starts to describe in detail about how female children want to sexually possess their fathers and it was bizarre and weird. Written as undisputed fact too. Gross. Why use such an example to illustrate another unrelated point being made? I am terrified that this author is considered a new age religious thinker of any influence.
Even if that hadn't put me off, the writing was not for me. Its very much character goes from place to place, talks to a few people, some random action happens. Rinse repeat. My god it was so boring and poorly written. I want to burn this book, I hated it so much.
