I feel like this sentence was a dare: “The woman wore her bitterness like a badge; the kind of person who writes one-star book reviews.”

rachel Oooh, yes!


Stacy I was also tempted by this sentence


message 3: by John (new) - rated it 1 star

John Wiltshire I'd forgotten that line. It struck me very oddly too. Well, I accepted the challenge as well. I loathed this book.


Claire probably the strangest line in the book! how can an serious, accredited author want to even put that in a published book with her name on it?! 💀


Scgoff Same.


Nicki I just read that line and I’ve come to look at the reviews to see if anyone else found it strange too. What a weird comparison for that character to make.


Jessica Lowe Yeah, that line hit me wrong too. It essentially inserted the author into the story in a really jarring way. Also didn't like her book


Sun.Drop.Sammie LOL I absolutely caught that and sniggered. How meta


Lauren 🤣🤣🤣


Shannon I’m crying. It was jarring lmao!


Elizabeth 🤣🤣🤣


message 12: by Lisa (new) - rated it 3 stars

Lisa Omg LOL


message 13: by Cookie (new) - added it

Cookie I ran right to the one star reviews after finishing it to see if anyone took the dare. Such a strange thing to put in a book.


Hannah Edmonds It absolutely deserves the one star, for this line and a couple of others alone.


Alyssa Foe 😂😂😂


Rachel Kelley 😆 Exactly lol


message 17: by Jill (new) - rated it 2 stars

Jill That was the only five star line in the whole book. 😂


Ellen I gave it two stars but I thought seriously about one.


Rebecca 😂😂 I was thinking this same thing and I’m only 50% of the way through

LOVEROFBOOKS How very pretentious of the author!!


message 21: by Rena (new) - rated it 1 star

Rena Yea i liked the book, but that sentence!!! It was very petty and shady from the author, totally unnecessary. If the book is a piece of shit it will get 1 star.


Jennifer Valgardson Umm you need to finish this one! The last 1/4 of the book was 🤯 guurl you missed out!! If you had finished it you would have gave it way more than a 1 star


Karen Carlo This is the funniest most brilliant review ever! Thanks for the laugh.


Brian Myrick I was thinking the same thing when I read that.


message 25: by Payal (new)

Payal I read this line and thought, “Ah, an author who doesn’t understand the purpose of a book review.”


message 26: by GREGORY (new)

GREGORY So, where is the review?? Why even rate and comment if you are not going to write something to explain it.


message 27: by Mary (new) - added it

Mary Fontaine I did like the book but I really like your review . I remember it from the book.


Rebecca I also wasn't the biggest fan of the book.


Ivy  Lur I wanna give 1 star just cause of that line 😂😂😂


message 30: by Kara (new) - rated it 2 stars

Kara I definitely found that petty of the author as well, but later on I was able to pull a quote from her book to describe this book. “The writing was as disappointing and mediocre as the plot…”


Taline Kopoyan I agree. I thought the book was incredibly boring and was honestly really hard to finish.
