I adore the concept of this novel and as a huge fan of the musical I wanted desperately to love this book... but I just didn't. The writing was poor and at times inexplicable and unnecessarily vulgar. I was sadly unimpressed. (0 more)

Amazing book with great witty writing. Will probably extend your vocabulary. It's such an odd wierd world as you follow Percy in his dream to be an employee of Safety Now Cautionary Writing Institute. The message is also top notch.

I have had this recommend to me so many times that I really wanted to give it a shot. Unfortunately from page one I was lost. The writing as if I was Kol and I was writing the story was hard to grasp and turned me off.
While I enjoyed the world and the struggles I just couldn't get past the writing style. Maybe I will give it another shot down the line.
