<From The Wall, Thursday, July 16, 2009 >

Violet, hurled To Ruin the Duke by Debra Mullins against The Wall.
The reasons were:

Crap, crap, crap. That's all this book is. Everyone, and I mean everyone, in this book is TSTL. Not just run-of-the-mill TSTL, but willfully, obstinately so. No one, and I mean no one, would behave, talk, or think the way they do in this book--not even in a contemporary novel. (I say this because it is ostensibly a historical, but all the characters have decidedly contemporary thoughts, feelings, actions, and speech, which is just another reason why this book is crap. Why even bother calling it a historical? Oh, yeah, 'cause it has a *Duke*.) The more I read this book the angrier I became with the author, editor, and publisher at their arrogance in foisting this crap on readers. We deserve better. 16JUL09

I, ,
just want to add:

Characters remaining:
The rule is still to hurl books not people. If you don't like this rule and want to rant against Slake, just email slake@slake.com.
