The writing quality itself is no better and no worse than a multitude of books widely available. It's not a genre I normally read (or at least not that niche of the genre), but I think I may be the only person on this thread to actually go download the free samples at B&N. The author (at least in these two cases) uses a first-person narrative and does a pretty good job at getting across the character's voice and personality. So no, I cannot truly believe that was the reason.
I'm not really heavily involved in this debate, but for perspective, my position is that Amazon has a right to do what they choose, and their customers also have a right to be concerned about their actions. I really can see it from all sides in terms of business practices. My issue here has been that some people are labeling it with all sorts of labels when they haven't actually read it, and it's getting mixed up in the debate about "the other book" in "the other thread". That's why I asked the question of you - I wasn't sure where you were going with that and I didn't want to assume either way before commenting.
I do try to be a diplomat, though I sometimes fail miserably.
