Good god, is that real? It's real, isn't it? How did that get past an editor? Did they not even bother copy-editing after the first book so well? If I were her editor, I wouldn't even care that this effusion of excrement was so profitable that its fanfiction spawned a multi-million-dollar movie, with another in the works. That line would fucking go. She's the spectacularly wealthy authoress of a wildly successful book and movie franchise, and Brother Dearest screens any and all criticism she gets from fans, haters, and well-meaning literature-loving middle folk alike. It's been this way since the first book turned into an out-of-nowhere blockbuster and inspired her to expand the story into a series. If she even has an editor anymore, I assume it'd be more of a rubber stamp deal. |

To be fair, the editor and publisher are probably making mad bank with her and the 50 Shades of Gray book, so they're less likely to rock the boat. |
