    			  There is something about this book that is so forced. One of the characters is &quot;Shithead&quot;-- a monstrous pile of feces from some of the most terrifying humans to walk the earth (Ed Gein, Hitler, etc.). It just felt like a desperate attempt to shock the reader but I was WAY more annoyed than shocked. Every violent sequence, every racist comment, and everytime someone swore or talked about raping women, I rolled my eyes. Besides all of this, Gibson looks like Eminem which made the story even harder to take seriously. I feel very &quot;blah&quot; about this book, and if the movie is worse than the book, it must REALLY suck.

    			  This book is why <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://Goodreads.com">Goodreads.com</a> should allow for negative star ratings. I give this book a -50 stars. The two things this books has going for it is, a) it's not as bad as Angels and Demons and b) it's not as bad as the movie.
