Straight up

Boring boring boring every time I pick up this book I literally fall asleep I can barely keep my eyes open I usually love to read but this book made me hate reading I’ve never ever hated a book as much as I hate this book.

I read this book about 10 years ago,and this book tells about a person that want to be part of something.The people that's in the group is basically using him,and he's not taking notice,that they are using him,until the end.
