Publisher's response about Stalker's book..

...in effect that we should all read it before judging.

 

(Source: http://www.bustle.com/p/author-kathleen-hale-admitted-to-stalking-a-goodreads-user-now-she-has-a-book-deal-about-it-15649240 , last paragraph)

 

Huh? WTF? Are they offering refunds if after reading it we still think the stalker detailing their crime in this book is a stalker?

 

What a load of marketing to get people to buy the book.

 

Next paycheck I'm making another donation of the book's price to http://victimsofcrime.org/about-us/support-our-work  -- mentioning the #HaleNo hashtag and in honor of Blythe.

 

I'm only boycotting this book.  I refuse to blame all of publisher Grove's authors for this stalker crap.
