Negative Positive
Title: Funny and interesting.
Review: Having lived many years in several cities in Utah I found the book rather entertaining. The lighthearted, humorous look at the eccentricities in the government, the people and their often unusual behavior was a nice reminder of what we loved and loved to hate about Utah. I disagree heartily with "offcenter" who sounds a bit defensive and appears to have expected an academic treatise rather than a lighthearted look at an unusual state-which appears to be what the book is actually about. What is suspicious though, is the need to question another reader's motivation for liking the book. Correct me if I am wrong, but royalties for this book would not go to Dr. Stern no matter who publishes her books, and therefore the unnecessary suggestion of unethical motivations is inappropriate.
Is the review positive or negative?
