    I have no intention to read the books, so i checked inside the book on amazon to see what everybody is talking about in regards to shoddy writing First line: Robert Langdon awoke slowly :o How can you awake slowly???? A poorly used adjective in a state where it does not make sense - just to...

    C.S. Lewis

    The Screwtape Letters is a wonderful book. Its an amazing look of how every turn and through every moment of doing something positive, temptation is an action away and so is sin. for example, making friends (positive :) ) but when lonely, cling and leech on them (sin/temptaion ~vanity/greed~...

    What's the best opening line of a book (fiction or non)?

    (Albert Camus - The Outsider) has a masterpiece of a first line and quintessentially sets the tone for the whole book 'Mother died today. Or maybe yesterday, I don't know. I had a telegram from the home: 'Mother passed away. Funeral tomorrow. Yours sincerely.' That doesn't mean anything. It...

    a strange story...

    The prose is funny and witty. I like the way that you used your narrators voice as a telecaster/reporter of events as the driven force of the plot. The explination of how life was dandy by the napkin was wondeful:) Though to think of an idea like that, you must of been on a dandy time :p...

    James Redfield: The Celestine Prophecy

    I havent read it, but my brother thought it was horrible. I asked him why? ... But the reply was always the same that he thought it was horrible. Not exactly the greatest argument against a book :) Though my brother borrowed it of a friend who absolutely loved it:D (these must be the...
