Many of us are avid readers, and what’s more, we even warm the cockles of writers’ hearts by leaving reviews for their books. And if you don’t yet, please allow me to put in my plug for book reviewing in general here. Reviews mean the world to writers, particularly in the early days of their book launch.
I knew this. I already leave review book reviews. What I didn’t know is that I could give double the Amazon value for the same review.
Before, I always reviewed on Amazon.com. That’s where I buy my ebooks, and Amazon’s the most important place to have reviews, since most people buy from there. I review on goodreads as well, so I thought I had this reviewing thing down.

I sometimes wonder whether I’ll fall foul of Amazon’s weird algorithms, since they are so touchy about authors reviewing other people’s books. I generally only post my reviews at one place as a result – usually the one out of US and UK with the fewest reviews already 🙂

I was registered with Amazon long before I started blogging, Jemima, so my registration has no affiliation with it, except for my photo.
Plus, I deliberately do NOT follow any authors.
Finally, I rarely accept books, for review, from authors – I prefer to buy them myself, then my reviews are set against verified purchases 😎

I will never understand why Amazon USA and Amazon UK aren’t automatically linked in this age of technology. I try and remember to post on both and then there is Amazon Canada as well and Amazon Aus.

Thanks so much for sharing this, Chris. It’s such a small effort on the reviewer’s part, but it means so much to authors. 🙂
