Title: It's good
Review: I got this book on a whim after having read several of Rabbi Telushkin's other works. I have to admit that were I not Jewish, I'd be lost on the point of view expressed in the book in regards to the death penalty, or I'd at least think it rather simplistic. The main character is well developed; the emotions of the father of the murdered girl are well represented, however, the other characters could use some serious development. They were likable enough, but I must admit that likable characters are not what make a good read. I liked the inclusion of a portion of the article written by the main character in the epilogue. I wish that the whole article had been included.
Is the review positive or negative?
