Brian Yatman asked this question about No One Else Can Have You (No One Else Can Have You, #1):
The comments seem a mite unbalanced. Have you guys actually read the Guardian article? Did the behaviour of the reviewer not strike you as a little "off"? Sure, Kathleen Hale shouldn't have let all this get to her like she did, but there's a real Salem witch-trial vibe to all this that I find disturbing. I found her article thought-provoking and not without self-awareness and a sense of compassion towards her subject.

Are we really now excusing STALKING and physical confrontation as an allowable response to someone on the internet who didn't agree with us? This is over a book review. Hale showed up at someone's house and called their job over a book review. I did not find Hale "self aware " or having any sense of compassion. She used that article to further harass and demean Blythe.

When you add this to the poor reviewer who was stalked and HIT ON THE HEAD WITH A BOTTLE over a review...what's next?

We've already had harassment, doxxing, stalking and assault.

Someone is going to die. That is what's next.

And what will be the response to that?? (less)
