Q: Hopeful for those who seek harmony in the world . I wouldn't recommend this to anyone who thinks that religious wars, repression of individual spirits or rape of the earth are good things. Those who seek peace, harmony, celebration of each of us and respect for our earth will find this hopeful
A: POS
Rationale: The overall sentiment of the review is positive as the reviewer mentions positive expressions such as 'hopeful', 'will find this helpful' etc.. Hence, the label is 'POS'.
Q: Shocked. Stunned. Horrified. . I realize that Patterson is known for his exciting, page-turning reads. I realize that he is famous for the relentless pace of his novels. And, most importantly, I realize that he is famous for stunning twists at the endings of lots of his books. Keeping all that in mind, I have to say that I was shocked and hurt by the, well, absolutely horrifying surprise ending to this book. To say it came at me out of left field would be a massive understatement. It's more like I was standing at home plate in Dodger stadium and was hit by a ball thrown from left field in Yankee Stadium. Truthfully, I never saw it coming. And I was horrified by it. I finished the last pages with my mouth hanging open. And I feel betrayed as well. I realize that twist endings happen often, especially when it comes to Patterson, but I DID NOT LIKE this one. I felt hurt by it. Putting that aside, it was a good read overall, which is why I give it 2 stars instead of one
A:
NEG
