On the one hand, I don't really care. I have no interest in reading it, but there are dozens of books out there that I have no interest in reading. So more power to her, right?
On the other hand, there is this part of me that wonders what the point of it will be if she doesn't take the opportunity to slap around her ex a bit. I certainly think he deserves it. However, doing so will only, in the long run, hurt their baby. It's bad enough when parents can't get along. I have a few friends that are single Moms from a teenage pregnancy. They all tell me that while they wouldn't trade their baby for anything in the world, they hate the fact that they are tied to the worthless bastards. I know one couple where the biological father shows up here and there, gives orders and presents and makes the moms life miserable. Has for years. The mom married a friend of mine who had to bite his tongue for years because he felt it was wrong to belittle the girls father. (Ten years later of being the one to take her to school, teach her to read, coach her volleyball team, etc, and the girl has made it clear she thinks her step dad is more of a father than her biological father.)
On the other hand, there is the possibility that her book may not do that, so I'm back to my first hand.
But still, on my last hand, I guess there's a part of me that's pissed that she gets a book deal when I haven't. My book, I guarantee, is better.
