you want pathos?

Oprah's latest book club selection seems to not deserve its non-fiction billing.

I wonder how Oprah will react to this information, not because i give a crap about Oprah, but because i wonder if she thinks it matters enough to make a fuss about it.

Phony-sounding prose

The excerpts from the book are beyond lame. I don't know how representative they are of the entire book, but I doubt I could slog through that much goofy bravado. I wish I had read it (or begun to read it) before I knew about this to find out if I would've seen through the bullshit. It'll be interesting to see if Oprah is proud or principled.

The Way he randomly capitalizes Nouns like he's a Hunter S. Thompson Wannabe drives me up a Wall.

That's very insensitive towards Germans in general and Nazi war-criminal descendants in particular!
