The Bad Boyfriends Bootcamp – Poppy Dolan

Well this is a new situation, I can’t review this one. I started spotting errors on almost every single page and (being a bit of a pedant) I was so distracted I didn’t pay much attention to the story, which is a shame because the idea had promise, it was warm and funny, the dialogue and narrative was well done. Some of the errors wouldn’t be picked up by a spell checker as they were actual words- just the wrong one, eg. sentry vs century. But I was surprised when there were multiple misspellings which would have been caught by a spell check. A proof reader was credited in the acknowledgements and according to Amazon the copy I have is a new, corrected, issue. Mr Frothy suggested I pursue a sideline in proofreading- unfortunately, as you can see, I have no eye for punctuation! It is a shame to see such a promising frothy book marred by such preventable mistakes, and I hope to read an updated copy soon.
