Negative Positive
Title: tedium
Review: I must say I was initially intriged with the plot of this book and am normally fasinated with plots that mix mystery and self imposed dramas from one's life. However, I could barely stand the writing style of Ms. Shreve. She hopped, literally, paragraph by paragraph from present to past and back again, to a point where I finally had to put the book down. The plot was very interesting and was the only thing that held my interest in the first 100 pages. However, I must confess that I finally gave up and will have to guess how the book ended based upon the other reviews of this book.
Is the review positive or negative?
