Negative Positive
Title: Much TOOOOOO Long
Review: The premise of this story is original, and parts of it are wonderful. There are some pages of beautifully written prose - and THEN more pages of On-and-On-and-On...... The authors told me MUCH more than I needed (or wanted) to know. The Golden Rule of good writing is: "Show - don't tell". Maybe the authors were absent on the day that was taught in writing class. With some ruthless good editing and pruning - this COULD have been a 5 star book.
Is the review positive or negative?
