How can a book review site allow 'readers' to review a book not yet released? It makes me question the validity of the 'reader' reviews of other books listed on this site.

HOWEVER, when the viewer says up front that they didn't read the book and have no intention to read the book, I think that review should not be allowed. After all, it's not a review.(less)

Out of curiosity, did anyone ever get pulled out of the story because they suddenly remembered Hillary Clinton co-authored this? Not trying to politicize anything, she's just...well she's Hillary Clinton. Her being "well-known" is an understatement to say the least.

Rhinnan No. I felt her experience lent some authenticity.

This is a comment more than a question. I’m reading this now and just came across a big mistake. On page 423 our protagonist lands at an airport “at ten past nine on a late February morning”. On page 434, something is happening elsewhere, but at the same time, and it’s noted that “today” is March 10th, which is significant to the story. Not a big deal, I suppose, but it’s annoying. Shouldn’t editing be way better?

Elaine Burnes Glad I'm not the only one to notice.

Plus, Feb. was spelled wrong, otherwise I might not have noticed, but when it's at the beginning of a chapter, it sticks out. So then March 10 made me wonder just how much time has gone by? Weird. I think the editing/proofing got sloppy in the rush to get it out.(less)
