In this episode of Bibliophiles Anonymous, Denise and Jess discuss what has become a very heated topic in the book blogging community lately - the article posted by The Guardian by Kathleen Hale, detailing her attempts to respond and track down a reviewer who posted a horrible review and then mobilized others to do the same. Since many things (blog posts, tweets, etc.) have been deleted, it is hard to say for sure exactly what happened, since we only have Kathleen Hale's version of the story and there hasn't been a response (that we know of) from Blythe Harris (the reviewer in question), we will just say that it looks like both parties were behaving badly and made some not-so-good choices. As always, we will let you the listener weigh in with your opinions. Is this the story of a cyberbully who has used a fake, stolen identity to try and get attention? Is this the story of an author who overstepped her bounds and stalked a reviewer, both online and in person? Is it both? Bottom line: no one in this situation behaved well. Behave yourselves out there, people! Here are a LOT of links: The original Guardian article The GoodReads page for Kathleen Hale's book, No One Else Can Have You A link to Blythe Harris's review of the book in question (language warning) A link to another blog post that has several screenshots and links regarding this situation (note that the opinions of this blogger are not necessarily the opinions of us here at Bib Anon - I'm just including it because of the screen grabs, many of which no longer exist. - D) Chuck Wendig's helpful guide to how to respond to a reviewer (just because it's funny and Chuck is awesome) We will be at YALLFest next week! If you are planning to be in Charleston, let us know! Email the show at bibliophiles.podcast@gmail.com, find us on Facebook or Twitter! Next week, we will have a review up for the latest book from friend to the show Liesel Schwarz, Sky Pirates. Thanks for listening! Please rate, review and subscribe!
Diane Cook is the guest. Her debut story collection, Man V. Nature, is available now from Harper Books. Tea Obreht says "Man V. Nature is as close to experiencing a Picasso as literature can get: the worlds in Diane Cook’s impressive debut are bizarre, vertiginous, funny, pushed to the extreme-but just familiar enough in their nuances of the human condition to evoke an irresistible, around-the-corner reality.” And the Boston Globe says “Here’s a good rule: If Diane Cook wrote it, read it…Safety is tenuous, if not an illusion, in her thoughtful, unsettling, and darkly funny collection.” Monologue topics: Kathleen Hale, Blythe Harris, don't feed trolls, Goodreads, stalking.
