Book Reviews!

[Woodruff]

Found a reference to this on Reddit...some of these 1-star book ratings are damn hilarious. My favorites are:

The Grapes of Wrath (my absolute favorite)
Catch-22
Lord of the Flies
Mrs. Dalloway
The Sound and the Fury
Tropic of Cancer
The Lord of the Rings

For fun, I used to go through the 1-star ratings on Amazon for things like The Old Man and the Sea.

I figure a lot of them are for kids who were forced to read the book for class.

You just got to love the review for "Tropic of Cancer", the reviewer unintentionally destroys his own credibility with less than twenty words.

“This book is one of the worst books I have ever read. I got to about page 3-4.”

The praise of professional critics hardly matters to the book-reviewing readers at Amazon.com.

whoever wrote that sure is sucking the penis of the establishment. who cares about the opinions of the little people?
