Catcher in the Rye! If you are under 21 you are living it. If you are over 21, you are over it! That is you are a self obsorbed Aha Male! However I forgave J. D. Sallanger when I read Harry Turtledove's Hilerious sendup of the book in Esther Freezners The Chickes in the Mail. Available, of course, from Baen Books. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bob To: bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, July 15, 2009 7:00 PM Subject: [bookshare-discuss] the worst book ever Let's not just pick on sci-fi, sf, science fiction (whatever you want to call it). What's the worst book you've ever read? I don't know the title of mine, but it was by Donald Westlake (I'm pretty sure) and I usually like his mysteries. The heroin was so yuck! Never mind, I don't even want to think about it. I read about two-thirds of it, then skipped to the last track and all the good people were bad and all the bad were good. Bob
