No, I have not. Looking at the wiki, I can see some similarities for sure. I'd give it a read, but I don't want to inadvertently steal any ideas.

Blame Amazon for the paperback price. I get only $4 bucks in royalties and Bezos pockets the rest. The Ebook is only $3 bucks though. Honestly, I just want people to read it at this point.

Lol. I'm honestly surprised GoodReads lets you do that as an author. The review, though, is obviously a joke. But you're right about it being cringe. I just figured out how to remove the star rating so my review won't affect it. Also, I'd look at the other reviewer's profile. They're real people who regularly review other books.
