it was amazing

I haven't read this yet - it doesn't even come out for another 6 months.

Starting it at 5 stars anyway because it looks bad ass. :)

Alyssia Cooke It's always baffled and infuriated me how a book can be rated before it's released, even to those few special ARC readers... I guess I now know...

I would normally agree. However, this is the best I can do after writing a dickhead review of Gilbert’s book Committed and leaving it up on this site for 7 years.

We little people do what we can.

And obviously, after I read the book, I’ll either sincerely love it and write a review explaining the 5 stars, or, if I hate it, will delete all of the above and stay silent on it.

Again: Committed.

If you’re reading, Liz, sorry about that. :-/ I’m a dick.

Alyssia Cooke Hah, much now makes sense!

I mean, I guess it’s something that I eventually added some update with an apology and explained why I wrote such a mean review in the first place (I may add that back in, actually).

But when a chick goes through a divorce, comes out publicly, and then loses her partner to cancer, all in, what, a year or some thing?

Yeah, F that review.

5 stars on this one, automatically, until further notice. :)

Kate I'm thinking a better thing to be done is to apologize for the dickhead review (optional ) and then delete
it

I deleted it over a year ago.

Started reading it and couldn’t get into it...I’m so bad at fiction anymore. :-/

Should I try again?
