Negative Positive
Title: Uninspired, Formulaic
Review: I really like Elmore Leonard and have enjoyed and respected much of his work. But when reading this book I felt that Elmore had really mailed it in this time. The big "surprise" ending comes as no surprise, and the book fizzles rather than sizzles. In this book, the characters are more like cartoons than people. All in all, I was disappointed, and was glad when it was over so I could read something better.Just so you know I'm not an Elmore basher, I just finished reading "The Hot Kid" and loved it.
