WHAT A HORRIBLE BOOK !!!!

I'm on page 50 and its the biggest info dump I've read in my "puta" life.

How a writer who doesn't know ANYTHING about evocations, "showing, not telling", character development... be a best selling writer?

Did anyone read this? Liked it? Hated it?

The more elaborate the cover, the more shitty the book is.

I slide into my Pikachu-styled ferrari, pushing the light skinned Laotian woman clad in Haruno Sakura cosplay to the street which was glowing like the ground in Tron. I pulled out my keys (modeled after the keys to the batmobile from Batman (1989, the Tim Burton one)) and started the car. Upon starting the car, the voice of Kit started talking! Kit was a character in the beloved 1982 TV show Knight Rider, who was actually a car too. At that point, a woman who looked like Misty from Pokemon but with really big tits and she looked like that in real life too not just the game avatar came up to me, eyeing the 2007 Enzo, complete with ears and jagged tail.

"Quite the ride." she said sexily, tying her hair up with one of those little paper scroll things they use in Sailor Moon.

"Gotta catch 'em all." I said. This was a catchphrase from the Pokemon TV series, and I could tell from her hard nipples she got the reference. "Want to go back to my place? It's modeled after the apartment from Steins;Gate."

Without another word she jumped through the gull doors, flashing a hint of her secret like that scene in Basic Instinct where Sharon Stone gets interviewed by Newman from Seinfeld. She pulls out her portable DS flip tablet loaded with every retro game and loaded up Dug Dug. I told her I had Dig Dug on a 90 inch TV back at home but I wouldn't let her play it because I was so good at it from playing it all one summer I literally couldn't even bare to let her embarrass herself in front of me, there or here, so I tossed the DS out the window and sped off playing Magic Carpet Ride by Steppenwolf. Needless to say, my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle boxer-briefs were out that same window before we even made it back to Rintaro Okabes.

I really can't tell if this is actually part of the book or just some anon's improv.
