Negative Positive
Title: poorly written soft-core pornography
Review: This book was a colossal waste of time. It jumps from poorly written pornography to brutal torture scenes featuring unbelievable mobsters. I just hope that Mario Puzo, who knew how to write about organized crime, didn't waste his last days reading this garbage. In one of the most atrocious parts of the book, one of the protagonists seduces the other by "talking dirty" (apparently, this is the sizzle that the cover advertises), and just a few pages later another character is being beaten to death.This book was terrible.
Is the review positive or negative?
