(A Precision Guided Humor Assignment) Before I dive into the review, a note about Amazon.com. When I first posted the PGH assignment at Alliance HQ on November 24th, I noticed several 1-star reviews of Sheehan's book. When I returned today, I noticed that all the 1-star reviews prior to November 29th had been removed. ALL of them. Even though 5-star reviews from as far back at Nov 17th are still there. Anyway, here's a link to the list of reviews, lowest first. Currently there are 5 1-star reviews dated Nov 29 (you have to click the "next" link to get to where the 5th one is listed). If you guys could keep an eye on that and let me know if they start disappearing, I'd appreciate it. UPDATE: When I started writing this post, there were 6 1-star reviews dated Nov 30. Now there are 5. Just freakin' CREEPY... Look, I *really* tried to read Cindy's book before posting this review, but I was too busy buying pants for British soldiers. Nevertheless, I managed to compile a few reviews from other noteworthy Americans, on the assumption that you'll be able to trust their judgment when it comes to choosing your reading material. What could possibly go wrong? Martin Sheen - "I love this book! In fact, I even sleep with it. Not in... you know... the Biblical sense... ok, maybe once. But I swear it was consensual!" Michael Moore - "Great book. I ate a copy with some fava beans and a nice chianti." Joan Baez - "Best. Book. Ever. I mean, if it weren't for this book, I wouldn't have my picture posted at Amazon.com? Oh... THAT'S what. Fine. Let's just cut to the chase. If Cindy's book were a dog, it'd be this one:
Meanwhile, I'll quote you one last Amazon review: After reading this book everyone should be able to realize how painful it is for a mother to live without her son, how oainful it for a wife to live without husband who is killed in war. Of course, I'm sure some people don't need a book to realize that... Not One More Mother's Child, indeed. |
