Negative Positive
Title: Not for me
Review: After reading such stellar reviews of this book, I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, I'm halfway through it and I just don't get it. There are some really beautiful examples of writing in the book, but I keep waiting (completely in vain) for "the point." So far all it's done is given me the urge to shower again due to the descriptions of hoarders, cockroaches, pet tarantulas, yellowed teeth, crack houses, and an overwhelming lack of good hygiene from the characters. Not really feeling it, and I don't get the hype.
Is the review positive or negative?
