I don't know whether to feel depressed or encouraged by the fact that a trad-published (Bloomsbury), NYT best-seller book is so bad. Remarkably Bright Creatures, which I picked up because, hey, an octopus is the narrator, is filled with POV wobbles, too many characters, proofreading errors, and an overall lack of sharp editing. Okay, there are bits of really good writing in between. But this is the holy grail of trad publishing? Sheesh! (smacks head)
