Hey,
I just spent an hour trying to figure out why the records had been disappearing until i finally got across this line

> Unblocking deletes all records of that follow, instead of just the :blocked attribute => false the follow is deleted. So, a user would need to try and follow the book again. I would like to hear thoughts on this, I may change this to make the follow as :blocked => false instead of deleting the record.

i feel like an idiot now, but then again, it's 1130pm and i've been working since 9am!

This is definitely not the intuitive way to do it. is there any particular reason you went this route vs just setting the field to false?
