Critiques I am grateful for...reviews...I have to be in a zen mode. I mostly ignore them, because they don't always seem to help me learn something. One hates a book for what another loves. One says it's terrible, and gets all the names wromg and the plot points, which indicates they read then pages and decided the whole was worthless. Another read carefully, and still hated it because it wasn't more like X. And so on.
Reviews mostly serve as a reminder just how little world cares about what I am most passionate about--I guess I always need to remember that, lest my ego ever inflate.
