IanS	Worst book (108* d)	RE: Worst book	18 Sep 00
I found 'Tis by Frank McCourt just tedious. I quite enjoyed Angela's Ashes, but it seems that in his second book he just ran out of ideas and decided to repeat everything ad nauseam to fill the book up and cash in. I couldn't finish the book because I found I was getting wound up every time I read the phrases "me with the sore eyes" and "what's left of him, poor thing" which seem to appear in every sentence. Contrary to a number of people here, I would put Wuthering Heights" as one of my top books. It's full of some amazing imagery and no repitition :). "Unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth".
