I’m definitely considering the “it makes my head hurt” factor in these awards, so I appreciate the comment. Thanks.

Mercy for McEwen – definitely a nominee, but not a ‘winner’. His writing makes my head hurt less than Tolle’s.

Ian McEwan should be blowing kisses to you from England, because he’s had some pretty strong criticism from visitors to this site. And I appreciate your comment, because this one is a tough call. Thanks.

Mercy for McEwan.
No mercy for the Tolle book which is my vote for Delete Key Award, worst piece of tripe I’ve never (bothered to) read and no, I’m not getting on the Oprah hysteria-train web “group” that will read it and breathe together.
Breathing fine without it and not even going to try and figure out what on earth (or in the galaxy) Tolle is trying for.
