To be very honest — nobody actually said this. AI wrote it in the style of the archive to keep this page from feeling empty while we chase down real quotes. Enjoy the fiction responsibly.
“Honestly speaking, when publishers say a book 'started a conversation,' it means it sold poorly but got us good PR. When we say it's a 'slow burn success,' it means it bombed until a TikTok teenager discovered it three years later. And 'literary fiction that defies categorization'? That's code for 'we have absolutely no idea how to market this thing, please help us.'”
