The Hand That Feeds You

Wow, what a disappointment. I was looking for something that would have an edge to it, and the Amazon review led me to think this would. It didn't. I found it poorly written and meandering. And, there were too many times to mention that it felt as though the authors were trying to be too cute about the atmosphere. The plot had more holes than a bagel shop, and didn't really come together. The style that they started with (checklist at the start of a chapter) quickly stopped, as though they changed direction, which added yet another layer of confusion to the book. While I can see what they were trying to get at by “updating” Les Liaisons Dangereuse, it failed. No character development, dead ends that were just a waste of time, literary cruelty to dogs, sex scenes that were cut and pasted from some not-great book... I could go on.

So, in sum: I didn't like this too much.
