This book is really annoying, sexist, homophobic, and a lot of other awful things too. Honestly, if a character isn't getting raped then they're being burned alive for being gay. It's horrible. Also, it's wayyy too long. No offense to anyone that liked it, but it simply bores me. The first chapter is okay I guess, but everyone is way too stupid. Who kills their brother over something that dumb? It's annoying, frankly. This is a book that I'd never read twice.
I'm not trying to be witty or anything, but I can't see what's so amazing about this book enough to worship it. Jesus is such a Mary Sue. Also, God is pretty awful to everyone else. Geez, dude, you think you could be a bit nicer to the people who are worshiping you all the time?
I haven't read the Qu'ran yet, but I hope it isn't as boring and dumb.

Um, don't feel sorry for me. Feel sorry for the millions of starving and dying children. Feel sorry for the women that are raped just as I type this sentence. Feel sorry for the orphaned kids who are sexually and physically abused in foster homes. Feel sorry for the people who lost their homes and lives in hurricane Katrina. Feel sorry for the people who had to have their arms sawed off because they were infected in Haiti. The list goes on, friend.
I hope one day you will accept Christ as your savior.
I hope one day you'll realize that this is a website for reviews, and you don't have the right to come onto my review of a book and tell me you feel sorry for me because I'm an Atheist.
God punishes people who sin.
Apparently, the four year old girl who was raped on the floor of a Walgreens a few months ago was sinning like hell.
He is not mean to them.
The hell you say.
He might get angry,
For what? What exactly? Does he really have the right to get angry at them for living their lives? What had he ever done for them, besides "saving them from their sins"? And since they were sinning anyway, he certainly did a hell of a job with that, huh?
but he doesn't abuse anyone.
Suuuure.
Although you might think it is sexist,
They practically push around women like they're property. It is sexist, so sorry to say. Women are turned into pillars of salt for speaking their minds.
it is just telling things as they happened.
Honestly, I don't think so. I want you to get on the internet and trace back to the very first bible. Then I want you to come back here and tell me that it is legible, and not destroyed or lost as I previously thought it was.
You also said a lot of people were stupid like Cain and Able. That I can agree with, but hey we have stupid people in todays world too.
Yes, but stupid characters don't make for a very good read, do they?
I appreciate the fact that you took the time to comment, but I don't appreciate the fact that you don't understand that it's my review. I don't have to like the book. It's cute that you can come with some pathetic excuses for defending this book that you like, but come on -- it's my review. I stated the reasons why I don't like the book, and the least you can do is move on instead of telling me you feel sorry for me.

Moorchild, Duck, and Anila; thank you very much. Although I don't think I'll be converting to Harhuism any time soon, I will certainly consider it XD



Thank you for taking the time to comment and I'm glad you liked the review! The worst thing about books like this is that the writer(s) think we're morons, and we can't remember what we read 50 pages ago -_-

It is tempting indeed. However, I stand by my beliefs that a girl with "the ability to to f*ck up this world quite easily" who "also rocks out in a skimpy bunny suit" isn't necessarily the best person to worship. But if it wasn't for that, I'd be with y'all on that one!


I think it's the bunny that matters, not the suit.


Kaethe, Haruhi Suzumiya decides what suit you wear. =] She may either dress you up as a maid, a bunny, or a dominatrix. And you shall like it. For if you don't, her melancholy will cause the universe to implode and everyone will be turned into monkeys, somehow after it implodes.
... Haruhi Suzumiya can do ANYTHING.
OH, and we all must learn the HARE HARE YUKAI!!
