Negative Positive
Title: I was expecting magical.
Review: Being a huge fan of anyone who has the talent and the courage to write and publish what they write I feel horrible giving a poor review. In the past I have read John Irving's work with delight and pleasure. What happened? This story had potential but failed repeatedly. I never cared for any of the characters, didn't find any of them entertaining or the least bit interesting, not to mention that I never understood them. I believe that is because there was nothing to understand. Nothing under the surface. Please, don't bother but rather read Owen Meany again and enter the magical place John Irving took us to before..
Is the review positive or negative?
