If not,we love you just the way you are.

lol, thanks.
I do appreciate what Keith said, sincerely. Even though I like to read the kind of reviews I wrote for this book, I can't help but have his advice in the back of my mind from now on as well.
I appreciate all advise given, and his was helpful. It's something to think about and I will.

I agree that this is a fine review. We all have different styles and ways we write our thoughts and experiences. This is great benefit for the reader for they can pick and choose the review that suits,relates and comes across to them best.

Diversity in writing is a wonderful thing.

However,as a top reviewer,Keith may only be suggesting if you are one that is capable or desires to go in the direction he suggest,he thinks that you should.He's doing his job.

He's just pushing you to be better in the maner that he sees it.

If not,we love you just the way you are.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't agree. I believe that this what makes my epinions so easy to read. I understand what you're saying, but I purposely attempt to make it as personable as possible.
That's what I would like to read in reviews anyway.

Thanks again,
Michael

by keithpruitt
I found this very interesting. Legends are always of great interest. Just a suggestion. Tighten up your writing a bit. He reads too much like you are just talking to me. Good writing should somewhat have that element, but not to the extreme you deliver.

Thanks Phil & Jan

I appreciate your comments, I have to thank Amy, and ginzo for helping me shape this epinion up pretty well.
I like that you have included your experience with this story as well. Your story affirms what Patterson tries you convey in his book.

You didn't mention ANY of the album covers full of clues. The album covers were the CENTER of this controvercy.
The album covers were the biggest part in all this.

...good enough for a VH to me.

I remember being in my teens when this whole deal came up. It was fascinating and exciting to follow it. I listened to a off mainstream indy radio station at the time and every night the host would discuss this and we would all call in with different theories, clues, and fun thoughts. No one ever took the death of Paul seriously in my circle. We all just loved following this hoax and how we were sucked into it.

Thanks for reviewing this book. Sounds like the kind of trivia I would enjoy.

I've never heard this urban legend and you explained it very well. Maybe even too well! :)

Maybe it is the lack of flow of continuity. I had rearranged and added some more text added headings. Thanks again AMY, for the helpful criticism.

I think you could still be a little more clear in your review, but I've updated my rating since you did at least explain the 'Paul is dead' legend.

After re-reading my review, your comment makes sense. I have updated the review. Thanks for the help.

...but what was the book like? This seems to be not so much a review of the book as a rehashing of the (alleged) evidence it contains.

While I personally find the 'Paul is Dead' movement fascinating and amusing, I fear you have inadequately described the book. If I was not already familiar with the PiD mythos, I don't know that I would have any clue what you were talking about.

Let me know if you update.
