Negative Positive
Title: Sickening
Review: The book itself is the work of a man who desperately wants to be seen as part of the inner circle. Indeed he was not. As one reader posted, Blow really did not have the opportunity to spend that much time with John if you examine the contents of the book closely enough. As I was reading I got the feeling that Blow had to fill in a large amount of space that easily represents his lack of true knowledge about the subject. The book was long and held on mildly interesting anecdotes that have already been previously published about the Kennedys and in particular John. If Blow wanted to make waves, he should have revealed things that are not already known by the public. He could very easily have gotten his information from many other sources, thus rendering his own account less than unique. As someone who has read inordinate amounts of information on the Kennedys, I would not recommend this repetitious, boring work to anyone unless of course they can read it for free.
Is the review positive or negative?
