Stacking The Shelves (1)

How are you guys? I hope you are all doing great. I just have to tell you that today was a wow day for me, I was so behind about this plagiarism news about TheStorySiren blogger Kristi. I know it could be old news for you but not for me as I got it just today. And wow did it blow my mind away. Since I am not participating in IN MY MAILBOX meme anymore, I thought I'd explain why. I believe that now that this sad unfortunate event has happened, the blogging community has been divided big time. Some would go on her side and that I respect, because we are entitled to what we believe in and also our opinions. And this is my only opinion, hence you do not have to agree with me. I may have not known every single details about this plagiarism news about her but I've read the bloggers' posts that she allegedly stole the contents from, and from what I understood, is that she did apologize but not really.

I speak only for myself, however, when I say that I won’t accept Kristi’s apology until she admits that she knowingly and with intent committed this plagiarism. - this is quoted from the author of beautifully-invisible.com 

Yes we forgive and forget, ofcourse that can be done, but please do not send hate emails to those victims of this sad event. Like Beautifully-Invisible said,

Let’s make one thing clear.
Kristi is NOT a victim.
We are the victims.

In my case, I also google words that I'd like to add on my reviews, a sentence I couldn't wrap up on my head but a little research helps but not entirely stealing paragraphs and change couple of words only.   Since English isn't my first language I am still learning and research is really the best thing for me.

I am not the kind of person who meddles about stuff that isnt my business but those people who gets angry because someone sympathizes with the victims are just not good. Remember stealing contents is bad. Anways, I know you are getting sick of this news too, so am I. I do not have anything against Kristi but to show my support to anti plagiarism as I work hard to get a book review done for like so many hours I will not participate with IMM anymore. so let me show you the books I received this week.
