Just got my copy. Half way through it. I can understand why FB is a bit flustered about this. Get it before it’s taken off the shelves.

The publisher seems to be saying the meta ban was an attempt to hurt the author as they negotiate a severance agreement. In other words, attempt to cut their source of income while they financially prolong the negotiation in the courts.

The publisher released a statement saying they'll continue promoting it. https://bsky.app/profile/flatironbooks.bsky.social/post/3lkbp2bp3rk2c

Yea the article I linked mentioned that they were moving forward. I just want to make sure I get my copy.

I'd been debating buying it and now I'm leaning lore towards yes.

He does remind me of Barbara Streisand. 🤔

It’s a ROMP! Weirdly perfect for the moment.

Can't wait to read it!

The publisher must be delighted facebook did this

Such a Streisand Effect moment.

janethebasic.bsky.social•106 days ago

Same, hah. Just put a hold on it at my library.

So it’s a banned book? Banned by a billionaire and an (checks notes) arbitrator??

SOUNDS LIKE WE NEED A LIBRARIAN OVER HERE

CAN WE GET A LIBRARY PLEASE TO SHARE THIS BANNED BOOK
