Title: Only passable
Product review: It's a difficult thing to spend 280 pages inside a character's head and still find them dull, but that's the experience of this book. In the hands of a better writer, this attempted revision of Catcher might have been good, maybe even in the hands of this writer five years from now it will be good, but as it stands, I was underwhelmed.The characterization is sketchy, the observations unilluminative, and the point missing. There are better examples of this story out there, and I found myself resentful that I had forced myself to finish the entire thing.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
