Book Reviews of Some Writers Deserve to Starve!

Book Review: I think this book is for mentally handicap people...!!!
Summary: 2 Stars

What is it that you really get after walking away from this book? The fact that the writing industry is hard? I feel that this book is meant only for stupid people. It made me feel as if she was telling me that I have the wrong view of the publishing and writing market and the only book had the knowledge to enlighten me otherwise of how tough it is out there is this book. I think most people that know what the hell they are doing already know most of this information in the book because of common sense. If you really take the time to look at the chapters and what they are called, and what they are about, you will see that most of them are pointless and should otherwise be called "The sky is blue" instead of "Truth #11 There are a lot of teachers who shouldn't be teaching?" oh, I'm so glad this book told me that! I could not have figured that one out since 1st grade! Or "Truth #27 Sex happens." Oh thank you E.Niles for pointing that out to me. I never knew that information. This book is pointless and stupid, and I am truly regretful that I have wasted my money on it. This is like that one time I watched an episode of "the Gilmore girls" and walked into the kitchen to get steak knifes to slit my wrists open. I am going to have to call and get professional mental help now.
