Taken from an Amazong review.
Quote:
Short sentences. Incomplete. He likes them. Loves them, really. Six word limit. Good for some folks. Not for me. No short attention span here. How about you? I shrugged. Why did I finish it? Dunno. I shrugged.
If that type of writing appeals to you, then this is the book for you. It drove me crazy. The main character, Jack Reacher is really not very likeable. The plot is predictable and not very interesting. It just plods along in short, incomplete sentences with everybody shrugging. Blah!

This is what goes for good writing these days? I read the first 3 chapters of The Killing Floor and deleted the book from my Kindle.
