We've really been very forward in asking people to share how they felt though, so I don't think it will be a problem.Their is a lot of criticism on " the other side". I know the book hasten even been out for a week and people have a right to have their opinions; but I feel like people are not seeing the story or the depth of the story,and they're reading the book with the intention to evaluate and criticize Stephen.
(Personally, the story wasn't as dark or scary for me as I had anticipated, so perhaps it was the same for others--maybe that was disappointing for them? I wasn't disappointed, more relieved actually--I'm a bit of a wuss. )
