Sex on the Moon: The Amazing Story Behind the Most Audacious Heist in History by Ben Mezrich

1.0

Some authors paint a vivid, detailed picture for the audience. Ben Mezrich draws his scenes in thick, waxy crayon. The dialogue and descriptions read like teen lit. Everyone was attractive, with quirks and neat rapports. Very little about this book rang true. Mezrich took care to add detail and dialogue at every opportunity, but the characters and story were so poorly drawn that it fell flat. This lacks the depth to even be enjoyed as fiction. I couldn't even finish this book. Who knows? Perhaps Thad becomes a fully-formed character by the end, but I didn't care enough to find out.
