Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin

Did not finish book.

Got only a little bit in. Did not like the writing style. It was corny and unoriginal. I didn't like the main character. I found him to be pathetic annoying and unbearable. Then, I read a little but more about the controversy around the book and the author's personal views and couldn't allow myself to finish this book.
