Negative Positive
Title: The Map of Love
Review: This book is a peculiar combination of bodice-ripping romance novel and historical fiction. The romance novel aspects are, as one would imagine, ridiculous and unbelievable. It was, however, interesting to read the political subplot toward the end of the novel to learn about Egyptians' responses to British (and, later, American) angling in the area. I'm hoping there are better novels out there that deal more meaningfully with these issues.
Is the review positive or negative?
