This happened to me last year. I didn’t write a review. I emailed the author and asked them to re-submit when it had been edited.

You’re welcome. Unfortunately when the book came back to me it was just as bad as before. I had to abandon it!

Mary, I agree with Denise and Stevie! I wouldn’t write a terrible review. Instead, I’d suggest that the author get an editor or proofreader and I’d pass on the review.

Makes perfect sense Linda I just caught an extra “how” in this blog post. No one is perfect and perfect books are rare, but this book is really just that bad.

I try to contact the author directly–unless it is someone I already know takes offense at having problems in her work pointed out.
