Title: Bland And Boring - Waste Of Time
Review: In all fairness, the author's love of the wilderness comes through in this largely boring account of time spent in a wilderness program with wayward teens. But, its poorly written and lacks the excitement of other, much better, outdoor books by better writers. I found myself plodding through the cheesy prose and finally giving up before the end. I totally agree with the review posted at the top of this page about the book being "seriously sappy" and like being on a "long camping trip with Shirley MacLaine." This obviously astute reviewer did elicit a chuckle and his comments made up (almost) for the money I wasted on this book. In short, spend your money on something better and don't engourage this author to waste our time with another book. I'll think twice before I make an impulse buy on an unknown writer I've never heard of before - and I think there's a good reason we haven't heard of this "author."
Is the review positive or negative?
