I’ve known it for some time and I don’t know why I just didn’t listen to myself but I guess I just wanted to give it another try. I wanted to believe that I was or am open to all forms of story telling in the written
\nformat. ALAS it’s just not true.<\/p>\n

I have just finished reading the Watchmen and it definitely wasn’t the cats meow – if you know what i’m saying. I thought that the storyline was weak and the characters a little forgettable.Now my friend Tra will be angry with me because she’s into graphic novels and she’d say that I just don’t understand the complexities of the whole thing … to which I say what complexities? I get it but just because I don’t like it doesn’t mean I
\ndon’t get it. We will just have to agree to disagree. Perhaps it’s because I’m a grown up and lost my youthful imagination or perhaps it really was just bad. There were perhaps a few points that were mildly interesting but not enough to sustain the entire story. I could have put this book down and walked away at any point and not have wondered what happened to this character or that storyline but I honestly don’t even have the inclination to write about it anymore i have already wasted too much time on this book.<\/p>\n

Not that anyone asked but if you did ask I’d tell you …. don’t waist your time … Move on.<\/p>\n
