"Angry readers flooded TikTok and the GoodReads page of an author’s forthcoming book with one-star reviews after the author attacked one particular reviewer for rating the novel four out of five stars. GoodReads seems to have paused reviews of the book in response, freezing the page as it was on Wednesday. The book’s publisher dropped the author in response to the controversy. The author later apologized to the reviewer privately. Welcome to a bona fide BookTok scandal."
