Whose Line Is It Anyway?

Sometimes I think I have hit a writer's block. But it seems I have hit a readers block instead. Last week I got 5 very thick books to prepare for an exam. The first book I tried to read at 11 pm had small font size, bad cover design and a sleepy reader. The second one, which I tried the next day, was an epitome of bookish language galvanised (to use such a word) with all the trite pharses in the world. Being an editor and paid a neat sum for simple writing, I could not tolerate it for more than an hour and had goosebumps. I am yet to try the other 3 boooks!
