Okay, I'm not sure just how valid this Bzz Report will be, because to be perfectly honest: I couldn't finish the book. I found it horribly written and as a literary editor, I read a lot of bad stuff on a daily basis. I haven't gotten past page 34. I talk to my mom about Iraq all the time, and the two of us debate with my stepdad on a regular basis. I told her about the book and she expressed interest in reading it, but when two weeks passed and I had only gotten 5 pages further than I was previously, she said "If you can't even finish it, I don't want to read it." She's referring to the fact that I taught myself how to read when I was very young, and I can read a book in a day or two usually. But not this one... Now, I have discussions about the war and such with my friends all the time, and my boyfriend provides some interesting debates, being of a different political affiliation. So I don't know how much I really would have needed to Bzz about it anyway. Heck, I could leave the book out, and he may still end up reading it, bit I don't think he'd enjoy it either - he works as an editor with me. I found the book to be dull and uninspiring. What I read was chock-full of cliches, and it says a lot that I couldn't even get halfway through it. I almost didn't report this, but I figured, even bad Bzz is news, right?
