Sky Corbelli | 114 comments So, on B&N I've got a couple of strange... well, I wouldn't really call them reviews of my book.

It looks like they change once or twice a day, and it appears to be 2 people role-playing... wolves? Maybe? Has anyone else seen something like this? Both showed up on the same day. Personally, I've been very amused, and thought I should share it with the rest of you.

The story so far has involved a lot of licking, running in the woods, and getting caught in a trap of some sort. Fascinating stuff.

I checked the link out and it seems very odd. Weird that they would give out bad ratings to do their strange RP thing.

I have seen reviews like this on Barnes & Noble a long time ago, but I can't remember which book. I think it happened on a number of books - two people role playing. At least they should have given a high rating, or no rating at all!

Steve Thomas | 198 comments I've heard of this happening on another book in another forum. I think the hypothesis is that people are having conversations via book reviews to get around web filters.

Eric Quinn (eqknowles) Sky, I reported the review with the low rank to B&N for you.
