Seriously, why? I mean, 'loathe' is a strong word - I can't even think of any book I loathe. You can't just drop in here and 'loathe' a book without an explanation
All that fairytale garbage; and the cod-Victorian poetry - it seemed to me she was treating her readers like idiots.

And the characters were intensely annoying as well. The plot was derivative, the book was too long.
But mainly it was the feeling of being treated like an idiot by a second-rate writer - soooo annoying!
