Review: Quite possibly the worst book I've ever read.

I don't even know where to begin.  I feel robbed of my money by all the five star reviews, I honestly don't believe those are real.  I'm not trying to be ugly or hurt anyone's feelings, but I feel like a high school creative writing student could have easily come up with a better story.  This book is trite, PLOTLESS, senseless, aimless, meandering, and man is it repetitive.  Once it gets into the second half, it's like it gets caught in a bad trip and it just repeats the same two pages back to back in a slightly different order.  The main character jumps to the silliest of conclusions and is in no way likable, mostly because he has no personality.  Same goes for his family but worse, since they are portrayed as an annoying burden, yet we're supposed to care about them?  There's not a single detail mentioned in this book that has any bearing on the story to the point of being UTTERLY preposterous - which climaxes into the  "shocking" ending, the only shocking part being that the author chose to just end the book without tying the first thing together.  Like I said, not my style to rant and be so harsh, but this was just bad bad bad.  I hear about struggling writers all the time that just can't catch a break and this guy you tell me is a national bestseller?  I find it hard to believe he's trying.
