Negative Positive
Title: Less than one star
Review: This book may have been hailed as a memoir, but it was also not only disturbing, but borderline pornographic. I took this book on vacation and ended up throwing it away half-way through because it was just too graphic and pointless. Seems the author was more concerned with shock value and self-disclosure, than in having it make a point or comment on mental illness and/or dysfunctional parenting. I kept waiting for it to have some meaning, but instead it just became more pornographic as it continued. A crewmember on the ship I was vacationing on saw me reading it and commented that he was just as disturbed. That's when I finally decided my impression was not off, despite the "great" reviews and praise for the movie. YUCK!
Is the review positive or negative?
