Is this review of Haley Pham's book too harsh??

Hello! Something new for me in this video but I thought the topic was rather interesting and wanted to share. Seems like Haley Pham, a popular content creator, wrote a book and it is now available to some in the form of ARC version. A review of the book gained popularity on TikTok garnering almost 2 million views. The creator goes by ilanaslibrary on TikTok. Lots of other people weighed in and gave their opinion. You'll see my views in the video but overall I think there are constructive ways to give feedback but at the same time reviews are for readers and not authors!
