Dealing with a bad review, part 2.

In our last episode, I started describing a bad review of one of my books and how I was processing it. Let's find out what happens next.
The main issue with both reviews seemed to be that the story violated the reader's expectations of what the story should have been. It seemed that the reviewers were offended that the story didn't have more 'reality', that Love-At-First-Sight doesn't really happen (except that it does), and to have that in the story offends some peoples sense of real-world experience. I try really hard to give an accurate description of what my books are - pulp fiction wish fulfillment escapist emotionally Utopian vicarious fun and frolic. It's not high-art.
These reviewers read the wrong book. My book wasn't what they were looking for. It didn't meet their expectations for form or content. You know, I'm OK with that. It took me a few days to be OK with that. I want everyone to love my story, or to just not read it. You don't have to. I make that plain all the way along. It's OK.
There's a deeper issue though. Yes, I need to fix factual, grammatical, and spelling errors. I try hard to keep the timelines straight and the story flaws to a minimum and to do my best with continuity. But there's a bigger issue.
