book rant!

i wasted several hours of my life because i listened to my sister's friend when she told me that i have to read this book cause it was a great read.

the gullible me, listened not taking into consideration that we have different tastes. so there, i started reading "chasing harry winston" another novel of the devil wears prada author. i mean, i didnt even like the devil wears prada. but still i read it..

i started on the first chapter and fell asleep after 2 pages. i continued the next day, skipping pages cause i felt that i didnt need to read it all of the descriptions the author has on every thing in the story setting that dont even affect the character or at the very least set the mood of the story. i went on and on doing the same thing. skipping all of the descriptions and sometimes even the wordy conversations that dont make sense and are not said by ordinary people. finally i reached the last 2-3 chapters. i was hoping for a climax. i mean, shouldnt every chick-lit novel have a climax? at the very least make up some huge fight amongst the girls or have this one girl break up with her fiance cause she cheated on him(oh that happened in this book, but the way that it was written didn't seem like it happen) or just create a huge commotion that would make the final chapter interesting. but no! i reached the final page and my reaction was: "WTF! that's it?" i swear this was worse than all of the dan brown novels that i've read. at least dan brown attempted to give us a nice climax. this book had no climax at all. i hate it.

i really really hate it. please give me back the time that i wasted. please please please. i should have just watched kimutaku or one of my japanese series.at least even if the story sucked the time was still spent looking at really cute people.
