Casino Royale by Ian FlemingMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
This is the first James Bond book. I seem to feel the opposite of other reviewers in that I thought the writing was sort of fun and moody, but the actual plot was so bad that it was not salvageable. This is not a spoiler because this is at the very beginning: the plot is basically that Bond will destroy this Russian spy by beating him mercilessly at gambling. The final third is the worst most unbelievable romance ever. I'm going to read the second one anyway.
