One, they aren’t written well. The experience of reading a bland book is frustrating. Two, it seems unfair to struggling disadvantaged writers. And three, they usually have ghost writers or co-writers who do not receive any credit.

I LOVE her Twitter feed. She\\\’s hilarious and insightful and irreverent. I really hope that translates to longer work.
