6 Ways to review a book and 4 ways not to #BookReview #Read #FreeBook

6 Ways to review a book and 4 ways not to #BookReview #Read

I'm not the only author who adores reviews.

Honestly, they can be worth more than a sale.

Think of it this way: I make about thirty-five cents on every dollar of a book. True story. Obviously, that amount isn't going to make or break me financially. But if someone leaves a great review on a book, it might entice more readers to pick it up. Which means over time, those little bits add up.

Readers count on reviews to tell them whether a book is worth buying. I know I do. What about you?

As an indie author, every review I get helps my visibility, which means I can spend more time writing and less time marketing. If you want me to put out more books and sequels faster, giving me reviews is one way to make that happen.

Unfortunately, there are plenty of reviewers who don't do reviews correctly, or truly don't know how to write one.

I've given you some basic dos and don'ts below. Glance through them to make sure you are including some of the dos, and are not guilty of the don'ts.

The Do List

Do leave a line or two (or more, if you wish) about your experience with the book.

Do talk about how it made you feel. The emotional experience is the most important one you have while reading a book, and the same is true of other readers who might be looking for that type of experience.

Do let people know why you liked or didn't like the book, and why you will or won't read subsequent books in the series or by the same author.

Do share how it starts and what drew you into the story.

Do talk about the positive aspects of the story, the world, and the characters you met inside the story.

Do be direct and to the point.

The Don't List

Don't leave novella-length reviews. It's okay to gush about how much you loved a book, or use whatever words are necessary to warn readers about books they shouldn't waste their money on, but again, direct and to-the-point is best.

Don't give a strong opinion without a reason. "I hate this book" or "I love this book" but without saying why doesn't help other readers form an opinion. For example, if a book was too spicy for your taste, say so, because readers who prefer spicy books will be more likely to buy it.

Don't share spoilers that reveal secrets, or talk about how the book ends. Not cool!

Don't give super-intricate plot details Readers want quick and to-the-point reviews.

Now what?

You don't have to do all the dos, but this is a good starting point. Leaving a review helps support both authors and fellow readers.

Thank you in advance for taking time to share your opinion.

6 Ways to review a book and 4 ways not to #BookReview #Read

What members are asked to do:

* Sign up on StoryOrigin (it's free). This is where you will pick up all books available for review.

* A review can be placed on any site.

* It doesn't have to be a five star review. I prefer honest responses.

* Once you've posted the review, enter the link on the book's StoryOrigin page (hint: save the email you get with the link to the book). That's it!

Once you create an account on StoryOrigin, you'll be able to choose from many other authors, but you are under no obligation to do so.

Please, if you hate a book -- email me instead of reviewing. I love talking to readers. And if you LOVE it -- definitely feel free to email me! I listen and want to know what you think. Your input makes a difference.

You may invite a friend to join.

His choice: Jail or War. Contact Front by Rick Partlow @RickPartlow66 #SpaceOpera #SciFi #Military

Go to war or go to jail.

For small-time street hustler Cam Alvarez, the choice is simple. He has no family, no friends, no place in the world...nothing to lose. When his latest con results in the death of a cartel hitman, Cam opts to join the Marines and leave Earth to fight a vicious alien enemy.

Drafted into the Marine Drop-Troopers, Cam discovers there's one thing he's even better at than running street-con games, and that's killing the enemy.

Wrapped in an armored battlesuit, Cam finds purpose amidst the horror and destruction of the war.

And the opportunity for a new sort of friends and family...if he can break the habits of a life spent alone, trusting no one.

And, if he can survive...

Rick Partlow returns with another kickass Military Sci-Fi epic. It's perfect for fans of Jay Allan, Jasper T Scott, and Scott Bartlett.

Available on Kindle Unlimited

Old conflict. Old players. New victims. Stratton by Edita A Petrick @EditaBoni #SciFi #SpaceOpera

Old conflict, old players...new victims

Twenty-six years ago, the Allied President and his entourage of galactic movers and shakers tried to sign a treaty. It would have prevented a world being swallowed by the pirates and warlords of New Hebrides.

The attempt ended in horrendous tragedy.

Now, the Federation wants to try again. They must accomplish what they failed to do in such spectacular fashion.

Sign a significant treaty on a totally insignificant space post -- Stratton.

Once again the conditions are just right. For those who want to see this event succeed, and for those who want to see it fail...

Sci-Fi with a Slant – The Problem with Uncle Teddy’s Memoir by Ed Charlton #SciFi #Speculative #BookFair

Kayelle Allen

The Problem with Uncle Teddy's Memoir

This is officially an "epistolary novel," made of letters, email, office notes, as well as the manuscript pages of the memoir. It's not usually the way sci-fi stories are told (though the original Dracula was!). The memoir has the point of view of the titular alien, but the interleaving pages concern how two human friends deal with the memoir and the uncomfortable memories it stirs up. Originally written as a standalone novel, The Problem with Uncle Teddy's Memoir became the first volume of The Aleronde Trilogy, simply because the characters wouldn't leave me alone.

Sci-Fi with a Slant – The Anchor of Time by Tina Capricorn @tinasammich #SciFi #Speculative #BookFair

Kayelle Allen

The Anchor of Time

The Anchor of Time definitely has some fresh takes on old tropes. For one, the 'chosen one' main heroine is a hair stylist, and I for one have not read a lot of fantasy and sci-fi with a time traveling hair stylist. There is a psychic Tardigrade that changes appearances depending on who it has a psychic link with (their appearance is just a projection of what you want to see), and there is also a sentient quantum computer. Combined with dimensional shift in every chapter, as well the end is also the beginning because the story is told in a time loop.

More wolf than man, Mongrel lives on the fringes. Read Mongrel by Lee Colgin @LeeColgin #SciFi #PNR

Kayelle Allen

More wolf than man, Mongrel lives on the fringes. Read Mongrel by Lee Colgin @LeeColgin #SciFi #PNR

Mongrel, a creature more wolf than man, leads a lonely life on the fringes of pack society—until the night a handsome vampire shows up with a mysterious request.

Bowie, a vampire cursed to a life of endless nights, maintains close ties with his human family. When young girls in their village go missing, he must act quickly.

But to find them, he'll need to convince the local werewolf pack to loan him their best tracker—a wolf known as the Mongrel.

Though he hates the slur, Andras is used to being called Mongrel.

When Bowie refuses to refer to him by anything but his given name, Andras can't help a flicker of unexpected trust toward the stranger.

He volunteers to help Bowie, risking banishment.

Can two tenderhearted men overcome their traumatic pasts and work together to rescue the girls before it's too late? Or will the world's most prolific killer snuff the flames of their passion along with the lives of the captives?

Mongrel by Lee Colgin

This steamy love story spans the country of Hungary as Andras and Bowie journey through cities and wilderness on their quest to right a villain's wicked wrongs. Mongrel features a sweetly possessive werewolf, a cinnamon roll of a vampire, and the worst killer in history. A surprisingly fluffy MM Paranormal/Historical Romance considering the subject matter.

HEA guaranteed with loads of laughs along the way and no cliffhanger ending.
