Title: A completely new type of detective - fascinating... Review: The main character of this book is a woman named Bo Bradley who also happens to be a manic-depressive. Sounds strange at first - but it is fascinating. Seeing things through her eyes is educational and makes it hard to put the book down. I learned a great deal about the prejudices and tribulations that a person with this condition has to overcome - and the incredible gifts that can come with it. The author never lectures, though - the book is a quick read. The ending was a little lame, unfortunately. Not uninteresting, just a bit overly complex and unlikely. Her other books are also very good. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: Unsung hero of the beat generation Review: I picked this book up expecting to skim a few pages and instead read the whole story in one day. An honest look at the way Kerouac and his crowd viewed women. Sad that these men caused irreparable harm under the guise of creating a new way to write. They thought too much of themselves and their desires and imploded in the destruction they left for others. Had they not been so self centered they might have done some good for the many who were duped into believing that Jack and his boys were on to something. Is the review positive or negative?
(Answer)
Positive

Title: Read the book instead Review: I didn't think this was particularly well done... in comparison with the book it can't hold a candle. I was surprised at the good quality of the film, for being so old. I didn't think that most of the actors looked right for the parts, particularly Kat. And the movie dragged on and on and on....I guess as I watched it I kept thinking of better ways this could have been filmed to coincide better with the powerful impact of the story.See it if you like, but I really can't recommend it...
