I post reviews on Amazon now and then and they reflect what I see as either a well written book, or one that was not. That's just one of the risks of putting your book out there for review. And it is about the book. Nothing personal. George, it was not revenge. I post reviews on Amazon now and then and they reflect what I see as either a well written book, or one that was not.

You may need some anger management classes. Two guys make a joke about two lesbians and you throw a book across the room? By the way, you might enjoy the second half of the book; everyone else did.

You are on the mark with most of your criticisms, and I am in the midst of a re-do. The "girl on girl" part was meant to bring out the immorality of a character who would go on to become a murderer. The change to present tense was to create immediacy in a scene (like live TV), and a lot of people enjoyed that technique. I can understand your dislike. Thanks for the review, Maryann.
