I defy you to hate my book - the Steve Lowe thread.

Use your aggressive feelings, boy (or girl)! Let the hate flow through you...

Actually, most of my act is stupid bluster, obviously, but in all seriousness, people have been so nice that I honestly think at some point, some of them are going to call me for a ride to the airport, or to help them move. I'm being buttered up for something else here.

The closest I've gotten to a negative review so far is: "I must admit, I did not like this story at all in the beginning. The dialogue is very southern and vulgar. In the first few sentences, Billy refers to his manhood as his "hog" (I have never been so repulsed by the word "hog" in my life)."
But the promise of these lines is immediately shot down in the next few sentences: "Fortunately, after a few more pages, I was able to laugh at the outrageous things these characters said and did. Overall, Muscle Memory was surprisingly enjoyable - completely ridiculous, mind you, but also very funny. I would recommend this to others."
So close. So very close.


Happens every time.

Muscle Memory 2: More Muscle, More Memory! (other topics)Muscle Memory (other topics)
It has 30 Amazon reviews, all with either 5- or 4-star ratings. Not to sound standoffish, but I'm calling bullshit. Somebody out there has to have hated it, or at least disliked it enough to give it a worse review than what's been posted. All this love is giving me a rash, and it's making me paranoid. Seriously, the Internet can't be this nice.
I propose a challenge - can you dislike my book?
Muscle Memory is a short (you can read it in an hour or two) bizarro comedy about body-switching rednecks, replete with talking sheep and toilet humor and insinuated bestiality. All of these points are ripe for the enterprising reviewer to trash. Will that reviewer be you?
