The world is soul-crushing and the pure capitalist culture that we have in the United States makes sure that most people who start at the bottom stay at the bottom unless you have an advantage to get out of it: 1) you are willing to lie 2) you are born beautiful and willing to use your physical assets to get ahead, 3) you are born to a rich family.Michael Offutt, Phantom Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10557969104886174930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3651058317830668643.post-72565557191197496572015-08-19T17:16:25.688-04:002015-08-19T17:16:25.688-04:00The thing about books is that there is so much com...The thing about books is that there is so much competition out there that it's very difficult to get your book seen. Hundreds of books are published and buried everyday. <br /><br />With this book, the cover and blurb just don't do anything help. The blurb sounds like a love story, but it looks like horror or some dark genre with that cover. The blurb is way too short. I mean...tell me why this story is different from any other love story? Usually women are interested in love stories, so I would try to think of what might catch a woman's attention for the cover. <br /><br />Anyway, your post made me curious about it, so I bought it. <br /><br />Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07922596724107742478noreply@blogger.com
