unironically hemingway.
my whole life you hear his fucking name everywhere, and when you finally pick up a book, you realize why everybody hates a cunt that says his favorite author is hemingway.
It's like he's trying to be this super deep, super rugged and gritty guy but he can't because he fucking sucks and has no talent.

Also an alien novelization. Some random one. No idea what it was called anymore, but it was... cartoonishly bad, and this coming from someone who reads cartoonishly bad fanfiction regularly.
Like, the main antagonist (people) were like these caricatures (you know, before poe's law came into effect) of capitalist slimebags and they took a drug called "pink orgasm" wow. Fucking brilliant naming convention there, you stupid fucker.

The whole "twist" was that the flat, boring, uninteresting love interest to the flat, boring, uninteresting main character was that he was a robot the whole time! Wooah! Crazy. I don't even fucking know why I finished reading it. Maybe I didn't it had like, a 4th grade reading level, so I probably just skimmed the whole thing in 5 minutes. Goddammit. This book is a garbage fire. I think it's Earth Hive, except that the author of earth hive has written other novelizations that I actually did enjoy quite a lot, so I don't know how it could be him. Maybe it was a make a wish foundation wish or something.

I was enjoying it until the wood porn part, it turned out to be YA.

The Long Earth series. Started of with such promise, but became more and more evident that it was less its own story and more like the sci-fi literary equivalent of a robot chicken episode. Reference reference reference.
>Hey, look! A giant worm like creature. In the sand. A Sandworm, if you will.
I get it.
>Character then specifically references how this reminds them of Frank Herbert
I FUCKING GET IT.
