Title: Better by far to re-read old Gordon or new anything else
Review: Gordon, when she's good, is very very good. She's not so good in SPENDING. Oh, she's intelligent and sometimes funny, but her protagonist spends so much time promoting her own interests and defending herself, hardly anything happens. The saving grace is very good talk about painting. Of course Gordon tells everyone in interviews that she's being "punished" for not writing the same ole same ole Catholic girl story. Nonsense. She's being criticized because SPENDING is boring.
Is the review positive or negative?
