B&A: Have you ever...? (+BQs)?

Her auntie owns the publishing company. I once started a book, and the first sentence was a run-on string of words half-a-page long. Yes, I said SENTENCE. Just seems to me the editors should have caught that & tossed it in the reject pile. It was laughable, ignorant, unskilled and boring. I actually trash-canned the book - a near-blasphemy when it's a genuine Book.
