Do you enjoy horribly written male characters no personality, ditsy-too-dumb-to-know-any-better-female-characters-written-by-men, main characters that are just referred to as "the Greeks" a phantom narrator that serves no purpose, and a plot that has so much potential but the author does nothing with it and probably has a piss fetish? ok great, The Ruins is the book for you.
