Scalett Thomas seems like a mediocre writer. Sunhawk !!rEkSWzi2+mz Tue Aug 6 09:31:26 2013 No.4005329 [View]

Not bad or awful, but painfully average. Just read Bright Young Things. It's a zeitgeist novel for Gen X, set in 1999. I dunno. It was alright, but certainly nothing amazing. I've also never seen so much dialogue in my life...I must confess I dislike dialogue a lot. To use terms /lit/ will understand, I think it's low-brow and plebbish.

Anyone else read this bitch?

/mfw certain people gave this 5 stars on GoodReads
