Negative Positive
Title: Very disappointing and very shallow
Review: Ms. Powell's book, which I eagerly anticipated, bombed as far as I'm concerned. A complete disappointment. Flippant, ignorant about food and cooking techniques, Ms. Powell is hardly the person to be taken as an expert on food, even if she did cook a lot of Julia Child's recipes (and yet Bon Appetit and other publications, including The Washington Post, are falling all over themselves offering Ms. Powell writing assignments--it goes to show how much such publications really do seek new, fresh voices in food writing--take note, all you food writers out there!). Superficial and not worth the time.
Is the review positive or negative?
