shitlist

[furyofvissarion]

I'm inaugurating a new tag: shitlist. Last week I attempted to read Valerie Frankel's YA novel Fringe Girl; it sounded like the type of easy-read fluff (uncool girl uses the lessons learned in social studies class to orchestrate a revolution in the school social order) that is right up my alley at the moment.

But no! I got as far as page 2 before I had to restrain myself from hurling the book across the subway car into the head of another innocent commuter. Behold:

Where I was "decent," my friend Eli (short for Elizabeth) Stomp fell on the exotic end of the attractiveness spectrum, with jet-black hair, mysterious dark brown eyes, red lips. Her ghostly pallor and rail-thin body gave her a certain (granted, Chinese) vampirish air--the possible explanation for why boys seemed to reel back in fear of her rather than assuming a rightful, worshipful posture in her presence.

Fuck right off, Valerie Frankel. THAT SHIT AIN'T CUTE.

Wow, there is so much wrong with that that I do not even want to start. Ack! I admire your restraint!
