Title: if ever a novel deserved 5 stars... Review: Let's put things straight from the start: this is a weird novel, practically a genre unto itself. It consists of a long poem ("pale fire") supposedly written by a fictional american poet (John Shade) and the subsequent notes/commentary, written by an equally fictional character: Charles Kinbote, a man who claims to be a scholar from the country (fictional again) of Zembla. Now, far from being a reliable annotator, Kinbote bends every word of the poem (hilariously so because it's far too evident) so as to mantain that Shade's autobiographical poem is in fact about the story of Zembla (and Kinbote's personal tragedy).This was intended as a satire against critics who, in Nabokov's opinion, tend to see in other people poems meanings and hints that are not really there.While the concept immediately got my attention, I feared that it might be marred by boring execution. Boy, how was I wrong... Eventually I couldn't put it down until I had finished it! Is the review positive or negative?

Title: Re:not worth the wait Review: I dont want all of my reviews to sound bad, but when I played this at a friends house, I didn't care for it. My friend was all jazzed about it, but I don't know, I like games with action, etc, not just a game where you can go and whack someone over the head with a gun or something. Maybe I did not play the game far enough to enjoy it, but to me, there are better games out there. Is the review positive or negative?
(A).
Negative

Title: Awesome saw Review: I purchased this saw based on other reviews here at amazon, and I have to say I was not disappointed. It's base is a perfect 5" offset, which makes measuring cuts fast and easy. The saw has a handle that tilts to make cutting at any angle a breeze. Fitting with a Freud Diablo blade, this saw seems to breeze through just about anything I throw at it, the cuts are clean and fast. It has a nice front handle, and the angle guide is labelled clearly and easy to use. The hex wrench for the blade arbor is stored on the saw itself which means you don't loose it. Just for a bonus this comes with it's own box which stores the saw nicely. I really can't stand tools that don't come with a carrying box of some kind. The base plate is very smooth and glides of materials very nicely making this saw a pleasure to use. would definitely recommend and buy again. Is the review positive or negative?
