Cindy's "War Bonds: Love Stories from the Greatest Generation" got panned. And she was woman enough to post a link to the review in her latest War Bonds blog post:
"Well, you know it had to happen– the first totally negative review. While I’ve had some mixed reviews, by far most reviewers have loved War Bonds and written wonderful things. However, on August 17, Frances Fuller posted this on Goodreads: “This book was so boring that I was unable to finish it.” As bad reviews go it could have been a lot worse! But I didn’t have to wait long for some kinder words. Here are the two most recent reviews from Amazon: Love, love By S. Morgan on August 20, 2015 Love, love, love this book! Inspiring stories of faithfulness and commitment and love – started in difficult circumstances and continued with mutual respect over the decades." More here.
Question: How can you pan wholesome stories about World War II veterans and their true loves?
