Teacher: In this task, you are given books product reviews in English language. The goal is to classify the review as "POS" if the overall sentiment of the review is positive or as "NEG" if the overall sentiment of the review is negative.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? If you are still confused, see the following example:
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
Solution: POS
Reason: 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'.

Now, solve this instance: Didn't care what happened to the main characters . I bought this book so I'd have something interesting to read during my son's tonsillectomy last fall. I was hoping to enjoy the torrid love scenes in it! I got half-way through the book, and it bothered me so much (my own issues getting in the way?), I put the book away. I felt Anna was emotionally neglecting her daughter, Molly, while involved in her lustful dysfunctional relationship with Leo. I didn't like any of the main characters, including Molly---all too unrealistic. But I picked up the book yesterday and finished it. The book was too flat! Though I don't think she was a BAD mom, she certainly exercised poor judgment (and for what? Like Leo was a good catch?)! I wasted my time (I don't read books very often) on this story. Yet I did read the whole book, hoping it would get better, so I'm giving it 2 stars. I didn't think I'd get any more of Sue Miller's books, but other reviewers said she has better novels
