Waste of Time - MY NAME IS WILL

My Name Is Will: A Novel of Sex, Drugs and Shakespeare by Jess Winfield
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

Apparently I can't give something zero stars.  This book is drivel.  It starts out promisingly enough, but never rises about mediocre before crash landing in a Port-O-Potty.  The modern day main character is a lying, cheating, drug-addled wannabe academic unashamedly wasting his parents money while putting forth zero effort in his life.  Yet he manages to find no less than sex with his stepmom, sex on a bus, a threesome AND an orgy - none of which involve his girlfriend.  In one book!  At the end, apparently some kind of metaphysical, time-traveling, wormhole-crashing collision mixes Shakespeare's English world with 1980-whatever Novato, CA.  Who cares.  (Also, this is the worst story that ever featured a renaissance faire.)
