Negative Positive
Title: Keeps you guessing
Review: I found The Next Big Thing enjoyable to read. Many of the reviewers gave low ratings based on their dislike of the main character...but I get the feeling that you aren't really supposed to like her at first. The web of lies she spins and gets trapped in prompted me to think, "stupid, stupid!" throughout much of the book but I did root for her.There was at least one thing I found ridiculously unrealistic and I don't know how the author even got it past the editor. There is NO WAY a 5' 10" girl who weighs 176 pounds would get on a weight loss show. That's not even overweight...unless she had absolutely no muscle and it was all fat...which I would find hard to believe.The story features several jaw-dropping twists that made me, as cliche as it sounds, unwilling to put it down.
Is the review positive or negative?
