Ugghhhhh! So, I’ve started reading this book, which I was drawn to by the title and cover, but I’ve already encountered some seemingly obvious editing issues which I find jarring and I’m only in the third chapter.
😬
First example: The main character (Liv) has a husband named Jake and a son named Johnny. Yet she refers to “Jake’s girlfriend” not coming to supper, when in fact she means her son. (page 20)
🤔
Second example: Liv mentions reading her first book by her favorite novelist when she was 12 years old, after winning the book in a school writing competition. (page 26) But a few pages later, Liv says that at the same time this author was celebrating her debut book deal, Liv was walking down the aisle to get married. (page 35)
