review 1: [4½ stars] Good advice, delivered in a mostly straightforward manner. The main problem, as others have noted, is that even though this is a short book, it still only takes Bell about two-thirds of the book to say what he has to say on the topic. The remaining third is spent on an assortment of writing tips and suggestions that you may also find helpful, but aren't about writing from the middle and aren't mentioned in the book description. Still, I found it useful and plan to refer to it in the future.
review 2: As usual James Scott Bell nails it in a nutshell. This book made me think in an entirely new way about formulating a novel, something I struggle with. At fifty-three pages it is a quick read and describes a concept that is new and helpful. It is also
... more a fun read. The only reason I don't give it five stars is that the last third of the book is filler material that everyone who reads these types of books has comes across many times. Still definitely worth the time and the $2.99. less
