Title: Over-hyped and too long...
Product review: When my book club chose "The Pillars of The Earth" I was looking forward to reading this well-reviewed book. Unfortunately, this book is sloppily written and often redundant. The story might be a good one, but it continually gets lost in the minutia. Some characters are well-developed, while others border on being over-developed, and it could use a good editing to bring the wordiness under control.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
