Thank you!

I can, with total objectivity, say that my book is one of the most successful works of literature ever created. But it's true that Goodreads should have stars for love/hate and a separate category for successful/unsuccessful, as should children.

right... but plenty of parents of retards love their offspring far more than those of somewhat successful people. are the retards better because they are more loved?

not a comment on your book but mine--- i've not read yours yet.

to steal, far too aptly, from Cabell:
But Jurgen shook his sleek black head. "That I cannot understand at all. If I were imprisoned in a cell wherein was nothing except my verses I would not be happy, and certainly I would not be proud: but even so, I would love my verses. I am afraid that I fall in more readily with the ideas of Grandfather Satan than with Yours; and without contradicting You, I cannot but wonder if what You reveal is true."

I have to say, I think mine - the Vicious Red Relic, Love - is probably my favorite book ever written. I normally don't say such overly-kind things about myself or my work, but I do think my book is my favorite book in the world. I'm so happy that I love at least one thing I've made so much.

of the writers i most admire that you've listed here-- Nab, Calvino, Gaiman, Borges --you've overwhelmingly rated your book 2 stars above theirs. i envy that; even rating mine 4 seems like a bold-faced lie...
