See, it's totally okay to disagree, I'm fine with that! It's not like I'm the authority on all things books or whatever! But you didn't go around attacking me, creating posts about me, harassing me on all of my social media accounts! That's real maturity and humanity right there, thank you. Thank you for supporting me and my blog - I really appreciate it, girl. You're fantastic! <3Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128004483437247740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-39007936888042415302014-06-06T23:02:25.171-04:002014-06-06T23:02:25.171-04:00Pili, you are an awesome friend!

I'm glad that you see things from both sides, and ultimately, you see what was wrong with the situation overall. I'm so over their attitudes! They can't hurt me at this point. I'm angry that I let them hurt me at all. <br /><br />*HUGGLES*Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00128004483437247740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-40028982998903317212014-06-06T23:00:41.269-04:002014-06-06T23:00:41.269-04:00It definitely is a shame that people act like that...It definitely is a shame that people act like that.

Like people did to you. I'm so sorry sweetie. It sucks. And it hurts. And I know. So well. Hoping you are feeling better now. <3 And I want you to continue sharing your opinion about things and discuss things :) I love reading your opinions about things. I may not agree with every opinion out there, but I love reading it all :) Carina Olsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10962924929801205597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-31670625572482446932014-06-03T17:18:03.536-04:002014-06-03T17:18:03.536-04:00I think the backlash is so many ways of overkill.....I think the backlash is so many ways of overkill... everything starts snowballing from someone that felt offended by a post, and chose to take it personally. Too personally, really. <br />I can understand disagreeing with a post and an opinion but reacting like it was a personal attack and reacting calling someone so many negative things... does that makes us any better than the one we were so offended by? Well, clearly NOT.<br />Your post might have been too bluntly honest, but I think it raised some good points, but it was clearly not meant to be offensive and demeaning to other people. <br />The problem? Someone read it, felt terribly offended for whatever reason, and started talking about how horrible it was and more people read it with expectations of it being horrible and offensive, so they read what they expected...<br />A big clusterfuck for sure, with too many people hurt and offended and you being the one getting the worst backlash ever. I'm so sorry to hear so much negativity has been thrown your way.<br />*big hugs*Pilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05235628363081574896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-41731944681475509902014-06-03T12:48:33.749-04:002014-06-03T12:48:33.749-04:00I'm not really sure what happened overall, but...I'm not really sure what happened overall, but I am sorry you had to deal with this. It's one of the huge negatives about the book blogging community, and it honestly makes me ashamed to be a part of it. Don't apologize for having an opinion. I mean that's sort of what book blogging is all about right? We get into this to share what we think about books, bookish things, and life. I'm really sorry all of this has upset you, and I wish you all the best with your schooling.
