Negative Positive
Title: I was expecting so much.....
Review: When I first picked up American Tabloid I expected the history lesson on the 50's and 60's that I didn't get in high school, instead I got something that is simply unreadable. The characters are exceptional and I found the progression of the plot to be good as well however the style of Ellroy is one that I have to admit I simply couldn't get past. I wanted to love this book but in the end it wouldn't let me.
Is the review positive or negative?
