The Bridesmaid Chronicles: First Dance by Karen Kendall
Truly the worst book I've read this year. In fact, it rivals last night's play for horror. And the play comes out looking wonderful. And yet, like a train wreck, I could not pull my eyes away. Let's just hope that between the publication of the uncorrected proof I read & the final publication they re-wrote the entire thing. Because it sucks.
One example of its awful sucky suckdom: one of the characters thinks to himself that, while making love to a woman, he's going to "put his fingers in her cleft and play her like a Stradivarius." WTF? (Ok, that quote is from memory, because I'm not going to look through the book to find it again. But it's accurate enough.)
