I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore
Bad Book Club by Robin Ince (not registered)
Not finished. Despite liking the idea (and finding the show-of-the-book funny at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival) I couldn’t finish this :( There were 2 problems I think, (1) the problem of stretching a simple gag and concept – that there are some daft books out there – into x hundred pages. And, (2) the almost inevitable lack of structure to this list of extracts, with not much respite in terms of plot, variety, and characterization. Robin Ince finds bad book, Robin Ince relates funnies from said book, repeat. See (1)
