The First Draft Of The Reincarnationist
The honest truth is that, while I appreciate literature, my literary standards are not that high when it comes to an interesting plot or theme. And, as far as great plot devises go, it is hard to get better than reincarnation (deals with identity and spirituality with a bit of inherent time travel – hard to get better than that).
The Reincarnationist by MJ Rose (which I was fully expecting to be a great read) might possibly be the worst book that I have ever read. Truly. The plot devise is good, but the characters are flat and make no sense, the storyline is interesting, but doesn’t hang together and the book should be edited in a big way. It really should be about half as long as it is.
At best, The Reincarnationist is a first draft!

you probably find it the worst read and all because you don't understand the concept. you have to understand reincarnation before jumping into a book about it. everyone's entitled to their own opinion, and i liked it a lot and will probably read it again after i finish "The Lost Symbol" by Dan Brown
