Yup, those Amazon Reviews...

I didn't know someone had gleaned the best one-star reviews out of Amazon and put them together. They're all for books included in Time magazine's best 100 books 1923 -- present.

I think my favorite was the one for The Sun Also Rises. She couldn't take a chance, now could she?

Roger Zelazny cheered me up after my first bout with reviewers by sending me ROTTEN REVIEWS. I still have it somewhere. I stopped taking reviews seriously after that.

Hehehe, fun!

Reviews still bother me, I always tremble a bit before reading new ones of my work... so mostly I avoid them.

Good plan.

Wow, that's fantastic! My favorites were for Gravity's Rainbow and Lolita.
