See, and book described as ''magical'' or ''inspiring'' or such other homo terms just turn me right off. I call them ''gay books''.
A boy called It, Angela's Ashes. All fucking shite. Kids dying. Nice, only a woman cold enjoy such misery.
A good book should either be fact based or have a good body count. Preferably both.
