Well, well, well (that is three wells) - our little stalker is at it again. She just left a bad review of Murder at the Magic Castle under the name "Sally Boyne." Here's the review:
"Sally Boyne
2.0 out of 5 starsThank goodness for sample chapters
April 28, 2019
Format: Kindle Edition
I visited the Magic Castle many years ago and thought it would be fun to read a mystery taking place there. But after two chapters of this, I was pretty disappointed. The description of the gorgeous, castle-like exterior of the Magic Castle was disappointing - there was none. "There it was, looming up against the night sky." End of description. Literally. The interior descriptions weren't much better - no sense of atmosphere. No sense of being inside the Magic Castle! I wasn't compelled to read further to find out the mystery, either. The writing is simplistic - the book is for kids after all - but I found the character's, and the author's, constant repetition of phrases annoying. It seemed to try very hard to come across as clever. It doesn't succeed."
When I read it several things seemed obvious. a) who reviews a book based on a sample chapter? b) her criticism of the repeated phrases in the writing - she used that when doing her dirty business on another book of mine - that review was taken down. So, I suspected it was her. But this is how incredibly stupid this woman is - I went back and looked at the one bad review for There's Mel, There's Woody, and There's You - the essence of the bad review was the reviewer didn't like the way I portrayed my ex-wife. I knew it was the stalker and I left a comment to that effect. She replied to it immediately - that reply, however, was not under the bogus name she'd used on the review. No it was yet another name - now, wait for it - Sally Boyne. Yikes. Feel free to visit the Amazon page and comment on her review. And then click on the Abuse button - that will get it removed. Unbelievable. Dear stalker, if you're reading this, which we know you are, do you know how easy it would be for me and others here to go on Amazon and leave shitty reviews for the books you write under the name Caroline Miniscule? Really, really easy. Like REALLY easy. The biggest favor you could do yourself right about now is remove your bogus review. Otherwise, tomorrow I call Amazon.
