Negative Positive
Title: coast to coast navel-gazing
Review: Pindell's book is not about visiting a number of places in America and comparing how livable they are. He's already got some ideas about what makes a place livable, and doesn't set out to challenge them in the least. He visits a handful of cities and towns, talks to some people he meets in bars, and moves on. He doesn't consider any large cities. He's mostly interested in how people like him (middle aged, middle class, white collar, married with children) will find the area.As an unmarried, childless person in my 20s, I found this book next to useless.
Is the review positive or negative?
