Negative Positive
Title: pretentious and long-winded
Review: I actually have read this book 3 times: once before entering university, once during, and once after leaving. Perhaps my experience as a 1990s student at an engineering school spoiled this book, or the fact that the characters in the book reminded me of the people that most grated on me in high school: theater people. Also I happen to live in the Northfield MN area-at least she got the Carleton student ethos right. :o(
