Cliche Rubbish

What disappointed you about Power Play?

Am guessing that this author grew up wanting to write a cliche self help book

What was most disappointing about Yamini Naidu’s story?

Started off with a really interesting idea, then turned into really painful drivel.

The tempo of this book is so horrible. The person reading it doesn't come up for air.

It just wanders off into a hideous kind of mess. It's like somebody is just spewing cliche self helf mess.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Tortuous and inconguous voice. The author repeatedly referred to living in Australia, however the really hideous american accent of the authour was just too much.

You didn’t love this book--but did it have any redeeming qualities?

None what so ever. Total drivel. Amongst the worst books ever. Please give me my money back.

Any additional comments?

This author is a misandrist
