Negative Positive
Title: Mediocre naivety.
Review: So many of the reviews posted here have either blasted or gushed over Jewel. I hope my review cannot be described as either. Jewel generally writes mediocre poetry. I write poetry myself and I wouldn't pretend that it is the most talented work out there. She can't seem to write any better than I do...which is just not good enough for a published "poet". I agree with the reviewer who asked of those who described A Night without Armor as "the best book of poetry ever" - What they were comparing it to! No one can be so naive as to believe that her publisher didn't think her musical success wouldn't also translate to literary success. If literary is the word. Regardless of the quality of the poetry, the book would never have been a failure.
Is the review positive or negative?
