The obvious troll *is* amusing - DIAF Industries as the publisher name did make me chuckle - but no one wants to read a bad book.

Let's start with a little history: http://gizmodo.com/5933169/how-a-fake-crowdsourced-erotic-ebook-hit-the-top-5-of...

This is not a "book." This is a crowd sourced attempt to defraud romance readers with marketing. Each chapter was written by a different person. No one person read any other chapter prior to publishing (other than their own). No editing was done.

Directly from the "authors" Brian and Justin:
"What we created was a book with no plot development, no character development and an over clocked sex drive. This is how many people DESCRIBE FSoG, but we took it to the literal extreme. There was an honest belief that many folks would read it and find it to be readable at the very least. And if it wasn't to people's taste, they are out less than a buck for it, which is more than a lot of books with higher price tags can say."


In order to truly give this book it's due, there will be a crowd-sourced review here shortly. Each section of the review will be written by a different person. No one will read the review in its entirety prior to publishing. No editing will be done.


ETA: There's no way to finish this. It's so crappy that it insults crappy books everywhere. For a GREAT review of this book check out my friend Toni's review here: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/392457980
