No, ma'am it's not 48 review likes -- it's 681 [UPDATE: 1,025]

Silly rabbit, Trix™ are for kids.  And clueless-about-customer-service author, consumer book reviews are for readers.  (it's not 48 review likes -- it's 681 and counting...)

 

And my lovely author friends who do get it are sadly bemoaning what the potential sales and possibilities of those 681+ potential readers could have been for authors who don't call their customers bitches and call for the troops to attack them ...  

 

 

681 followers + their followers + their followers' followers (ya know, viral marketing and the very reason authors want reviews on book sites and social media? ) ... what many authors would love to leverage and hate to have leveraged against them.

Author response to a reviewer star-rating their book as "okay"

FYI fgoodreads prohibits professional reviews; there is no down voting to get a review hidden ("flag" on goodreads is the same as "report abuse" on Amazon).

 

Review in question if you want to judge for yourself and *snark* also flag it -- because *snark* why would anyone like it (which is sort of goodreads' equivalent to Amazon upvoting) -- http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1608577862?ref=ru_lihp_lk_rv_3_mclk-up3044652454

Judge for yourself by the free sample and by the review the so-called bitch wrote here.

[Reblog] Who is Excessica? And why are they caving in to bullies?

OA Comment: Wow. So many people who need to fuck right off. Particularly Anne Rice's unhinged ass. I don't know what Excessica is either but I'll be sure never to give them any money. Good for the authors who pulled their books. 

_____________________________________________________________________________

 

The digest version, I think:

 

Jenny Trout speaks her mind about a racist/rapist book.  Jenny Trout encourages readers to let booksellers know how vile the book is and encourage them not to sell it.

 

Anne Rice puts pressure on Excessica, who is apparently (I didn't do any real research; it's late and I'm tired) a publisher, not to publish Jenny Trout's book in a boxed set, Bad Boy Next Door.

 

Excessica caves to Anne Rice's bullying and pulls Jenny Trout's book from the boxed set.

 

Jenny Trout's fellow authors stand up to Anne Rice's bullying and pull their own books from the boxed set.

 

I don't know who or what Excessica is, but I don't like them and I won't support them.

 

They're spineless worms.
