Title: If you like words like "Portmanteau" then this bk. is 4u
Product review: I was really turned off by words like "portmanteau" in the opening chapter & throughout the bk.. While reading this bk. I never felt like it was set in the 70's (1976 to be exact). I'll blame it on the corpulent cat next to the portmanteau. The writting just reminded me of calculus - few people in the real world use it after college. In addition, the characters never seemed to come alive for me. Luckly the book is a short read o/w it would have been far worse. I will say the story itself wasn't bad - just everything else...
