Title: Half way through and waiting for some excitement
Product review: When I read the FRONT PAGE article in the New York Times touting The Rule of Four to be the next runaway hit of the DaVinci Code genre, I ran to buy it! However, as has been previously and frequently critiqued, this book is not even close. I'm not saying anything about the literary style, character development or intellectual (pseudo) prose of these Ivy League authors, I'm simply saying it's not what it was pumped up to be!!! So far, half way through and I'm still trying to get my adrenalin pumping the way all of Dan Brown's books did. I read one review that stated the writer couldn't sleep after finishing the book because of the thrill quotient, but come on, do I have to get through this entire book--touring all of Princeton-- for a payoff? I think it's just a wanabe wolf in sheep's clothing.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
