Marc *Dark Reader with a Thousand Young! Iä!* re: books with 'fuck' in the title (Glow in the F*cking Dark here, also see The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life, F*ck Love, The Girl Who Could Move Sh*t with Her Mind which sure is shit and not fuck but it's the same concept).

Why not just say 'fuck'? Who is the asterisk protecting? Find one single person who sees this and doesn't know that it says 'fuck'. I don't care to swear most of the time, but if you're gonna do it then do it, don't hide behind a fucking asterisk.

I do like that fucking cover though, with the supernova coming out the fuck like that.

Heather Crutcher Hey thanks for posting The Frost Files book. It looks really interesting despite the lack of explicit words in its title.

It's an okay series. It's going to wear out its naming pattern though, and I don't understand why the prequel short story, Promise wasn't called, like, Sh*tty Promise.
