Negative Positive
Title: Not worth reading
Review: This is a tedious grade B or C book that wouldn't make it as far as a made-for-tv movie. The characters are one dimensional, the writing flat and cliche-ridden (eg He had the: (fill in one) softest, deepest, darkest, warmest brown eyes I had ever seen.) Far more shocking than the ending is the fact that this was a National Book Award finalist.
Is the review positive or negative?
