The hungry ocean book

Easy read to hold me until the next day when I could get a real novel Reading this seems like an amateur s first rough draft with so many issues I saw a reel of a cheesy 1970 s film playing in my mind as I read each page The story was clich d and had no point The characters were flat and ridiculous with some dialogue that made me laugh out loud that anyone would write it for publication Every girl dreams of falling in love at first sight with a man that calls her beefy but cute and affectionately refers to her as wench while forcing endless cocktails down her obedient gullet as she stares back with adoration I wouldn t recommend wasting any time reading this bizarre amateur tale that reads as a horrible cross between Rebecca and Frankenstein Beware I read this also because someone gave it five stars.
