Interesting response/article to many of our complaints... Looks like they “heard” us, but will they “listen?” That remains to be seen... 🤔🧐 @Liberty will be back next month!! Let‘s see what happens after that!

AmyG Wasn‘t @Liberty the judge who recommended The Heart‘s Invisible Furies? 6y

kspenmoll Thanks! Hopefully they are reconsidering essays too. 6y
8little_paws I really respect their quick and thorough response. Maybe I want to be on that committee 🤔 6y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @8little_paws I thought about it too... 6y
emilyhaldi Glad they heard the uproar we helped to create the other day!! 😆 That is definitely somewhat reassuring. If only they didn‘t raise the prices so high... 😏 6y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @emilyhaldi I know!!!! 😮😵 6y
janeycanuck @emilyhaldi did the price go up? I‘m in a 12-month subscription right now and likely cancelling at the end of this round so that will be the final nail in the coffin for me 6y
janeycanuck Feedback from a few readers saying judge essays are too long isn‘t a reason to remove them altogether. Put them at the end with only a few lines showing and a “read more” link but don‘t remove it entirely. I wonder if dropping the book-specific bookmarks a few months ago was a precursor to dropping judge essays? 6y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @janeycanuck I agree with you!! I guess we should have seen it coming with those terrible bookmarks. It‘s $14.99 a month now and $9.99 per extra book... 6y
