My goal is to always make a reader have a strong reaction to my work. Sometimes that reaction is love. Other times, like below, it’s hate. You never want the middle. I’m thrilled this reviewer had such a strong reaction. I enjoyed reading this review.

Who couldn’t resist watching Christos Tsiolkas and Angela Savage duke it out in a literary battle of good books vs bad books?! Certainly not me, certainly not you. Come to a Ivanhoe Library this Saturday to see it unfold ⁦@YarraPlentyLib⁩ yprl.spydus.com/cgi-bin/spydus…
