Negative Positive
Title: Redundant bore that had a promising beginning.....
Review: This novel started out beautifully, with writing that made my heart ache. And then, boom, it bombed around page 80. This would have been a GREAT short story. MacDermott's character descriptions were SO repetitive, and the scene in the gas station in Ireland with the bullsh-t about the two sisters having an argument was absolutely ludicrous. After all that pining for Eva, Billy acts completely alien to his own character during this whole scene.
Is the review positive or negative?
