Author Emma Clines made huge bookish headlines with the publication of her book The Girls. It was widely loved by readers and critics alike. Recently she became the victim of a maddening lawsuit by a former boyfriend who is claiming she plagiarized his work. Readers are sticking by Clines and are outraged by the inflammatory suit and its purporting that she manipulated older men in relationships for "gifts and money." Book Riot posted a very good article about the controversy, and you can check it out right here.
