Great advice from Joe đ
There is nothing more frustrating to an author than receiving an email from Amazon, informing you that âYou have a new review for . . . â and finding out that someone has given away all the details of your best-selling mystery novel.  Then, to make matters worse, you discover that the âreviewerâ has publicly dressed you down with a very personal attack, thereby adding insult to injury.  Sound familiar?  If youâve been writing for a while, it probably does.  And, it happens more often than you might think. Unless the review was written by another author with a grudge, the reason is fairly simple: most people do NOT know how to write a book review . . . or a movie review . . . or any other kind of review.  Hopefully, thatâs all about to change (at least I hope it will for you).  For our purposes, Iâll only deal with bookâŚ

I “love” the one-star reviews people leave that say, “It took Amazon six weeks to deliver this book!”

One more proof that I’m not wrong in dealing with review the way they will be dealt with in BookGarage đ
And NO STARS either đ

The most scathing “review” left on Amazon for one of my books states that they gave up reading by “page 13” – about a quarter of the way through the first story of twelve… I use quotes from the review in my tweets. The “review” is from an author… doubtless a keyboard warrior, storming through the internet setting their world to rights! All I can think is that if I could provoke that kind of venom in just thirteen pages then I must be doing something correctly. đ
