Gail Meath (goodreadscomgail_meath) Leah, you have nothing to worry about...that review is very obviously a personal vendetta, just read it. And your book is holding up very, very well even with that 1 star rating!! Although, I do understand your frustration.

V.M. Sang (aspholessaria) | 230 comments Leah, it's obvious to anyone who reads this review that it says nothing about the book.
I just read it. She does say to message her if the message she received wasn't from you and she'll take the review down. While I can see why you wouldn't want to interact with her, have you considered doing as she asks and reassuring her the message was not from you?

Cam Lang (camlang) | 11 comments Hi Leah, sorry to hear about the irrelevant review. I can tell you that I've been trying to have 13 1-star ratings/reviews removed since February (I was the victim of an extortion scam) but I haven't even had one of my dozens of messages acknowledged by Goodreads. Flagging has not worked for me.

I'm afraid you can't remove a book from Goodreads. Once it's available for sale, it stays there for the benefit of people who might have purchased it.

I flagged the review too.
