I've just had to google the author's name, because I didn't remember the title of the book, exactly, and I've realised it's someone I really don't like! I'm kind of shocked and disappointed, but the book has gone now, so hopefully it won't put too many people off.

The book itself is not my usual thing, but I found it was very strong, particularly because it was written in a very familiar genre but a slightly unfamiliar style (for me anyway).

Not the cheeriest read ever, but hopefully, someone out there apart from me will enjoy it.

So you liked this book but in general you don't like this author?

I didn't know the woman was an author and read the book without noticing the name. I only saw who it was when I googled for the full book title.

Her writing is good (if this is anything to go by). I just find some of the personal stuff that's gone off in her life questionable to say the least.

I hope that makes sense...

So youdon't like the author as a person, but you do like the book she wrote.

I am intrigued...
