How to write
a review: Part 4.
*Lastly, posting
reviews can also be tricky, but I believe there is a rhyme and reason for that
as well. Always try to post your review at the location or site it was
purchased or obtained. Sometimes, books are received without knowing the
location of purchase, but that’s not a problem. Most books are now available
for viewing and reviewing at GoodReads.com.
Lastly, if
you have a blog, Facebook page, Stumble Upon, Google+, twitter, or other social
media outlet, post your reviews there. As with most sites these days, reviews
are just the tip of the iceberg. You can also show your support by rating, ranking,
and Liking books and pages where applicable. For example, most Amazon book
listings come with a Like button, rate option, and review option. Take a few
extra seconds and pursue all three.
I hope you
found this to be helpful and wish you all the best in your reading, writing,
and reviews. I think I have finalized the details of the Review Challenge that
I’m going to host. I think it will be a lot of fun. I will be awarding prizes
to the winners. Winners will be based solely on votes. Be sure to come back
tomorrow to learn all the details of challenge and the prizes…
In the
meantime, I will be posting a whole bunch of reviews I should have done ages
ago. They are for traditionally published books as well as Indie published
books. It’s time I started putting all my theories into practice and stop being
afraid to express myself when writing reviews.
The next review challenge is scheduled for the
Fall/Winter season of 2013.
