A Brisbane bookstore was bombarded with one-star ratings on its Facebook page after an "anti-feminist" online group became angry at the store's excitement for an upcoming book by Daily Life columnist, Clementine Ford.

Avid Reader Bookshop and Cafe, in Brisbane's West End, was the target of a large number of negative reviews on its page last night after it shared a post from Ford's page announcing she would be publishing a second book in 2018.

The bookstore, which hosted a Brisbane launch event for Ford's first book, Fight Like a Girl, last year, commented on the shared post, "Such brilliant news!"

Shortly after making the comment, the Avid Reader Facebook page received more than 200 one-star reviews, with accompanying comments accusing the store of "hating men" and being "anti-equality".
