Patting oneself on the back

April 7, 2010 |

Written by: Kelly on April 7, 2010.

I ran across this while putting together an audiobook order at work this week:

It’s small, so you’ll have to open it up. For those of you who still can’t see, it’s the sales page for the May 2010 publication of The Daughters by Joanna Philbin (yes, it’s the daughter of Regis).

But what’s weird here is what’s under it: the sales spot for the second book, which comes out at the end of 2010. And what does it say?

“Joanna Philbin presents the sequel to her immensely popular novel, The Daughters.”

Apparently, the book has become a smash hit a month before it’s even available. Sure, I’m aware it’s possible, but that kind of advertisement is downright deceptive.
