Here's an excellent post by Staysi at Lost in Ink for bloggers about writing negative book reviews: LINK. I agree wholeheartedly! Even though it might be scary and uncomfortable to write a bad review for a book you've read, it's better to tell the truth. Yeah, the author might come across your blog post, but maybe your bad review will help her become a better author. Our blogger friends follow our book blogs to get our honest opinion about books, not for us to tell them a pack of lies. If we rate every single book we read as 5 stars, our credibility as book bloggers diminishes.
Anyway, read Staysi's post and stand up for your opinion!
About Me
- Kelsey
- I'm 19 years old and I read tons of books, a lot of which are YA. In addition to book reviews, I also come across book contests that I will post either here or on my Twitter page. Publishing companies and authors: I would be more than willing to receive books from most genres to review (excluding ebooks). Also, email if you would like me to review anything else un-book related.
