JR Ward losing the plot?

On things JR Ward: There is no other paranormal writer who compares to her, this is a given. Smexy books have given her a category of her own on their site, which says it all. But is it me or does her self-promotion grate? If you follow her FB page, you'll see what I mean.

Moderators regularly cut comments and we are given the impression that's because some of the comments don't uniformly praise Ward – what is this, Soviet Russia in the 60s? If you read her ghastly Fallen Angels books, you'll see why praise cannot be uniform. But the BDB books – whoa. So she's completed the manuscript of the latest one, Lover Reborn, and she tells us how her editor missed FOUR subway stops because she was so caught up in the story. Jessica, Jessica, ever heard of preaching to the choir? Hon, we would buy the BDB novels even if you were, like John Matthew in Lover Mine, quite mute.
