I wouldn't agree with that, per se. While it may be a protest against Agency pricing the carpet bombing has made Amazon's reviews more useless than they were to begin with. I don't use Amazon's reviews very much anymore...they are mostly worthless. I go to sites like Goodreads first now. I used to always go to Amazon because I'm a "read the bad reviews first" find of girl..but there is no way I'm wading through that "I didn't read it/buy it/own it but" crap. Its not worth it for me. I just go to Amazon to price compare and purchase...I don't look at reviews.

So, in a way, the carpet bombs have done the opposite of the intention for me.

But go right ahead, 1 star all you like. If you like it, I love it.
