Negative Positive
Title: Wishing for More
Review: As a huge John Irving fan, I was eagerly awaiting this read. It opens well, in somewhat classic Irving fashion, but then dissipates into mere possibilities. Interesting concept, but too much foreshadowing and forced twists. Found the characters to superficial and forced. I enjoyed Irving's commentary on the media and crisis, but can't recommend this one. If you must read it wait for the paperback, library edition, or better yet, for his next novel.
Is the review positive or negative?
