My Thoughts on Reviews
I was
thinking…I know scary right ;) that today I would explain my idea of a
review. My reviews are my thoughts on
how much I enjoyed an author’s wonderful story or anything that stands
out. I try not to ever ruin someone
else’s journey into the world created by an author with spoilers.
I am not the
grammar police, so unless it is majorly an issue I don’t mention it and usually
doesn’t bother me I only mention for those it does bug.
I will not
ever be mean or rude in my reviews, and some may think I’m too nice. To be honest, I usually read things that I
know I will like, so you will notice most of my reviews are at least 3
stars. I do branch out when asked, but
only if it intrigues me in some way. I
do branch out on my own with free reads or things I’ve won that aren’t in my
usual wheelhouse. If I do read something
that I don’t like, I never attack the book or the author because really isn’t
there enough nastiness and negativity in the world already. I share because maybe it will help someone
decide if they want to read it, and even if it is not for me, I recommend who
would like it because usually the author does a fabulous job, the story was
just not for me.
I rate books
by unicorns because they are more magical like the worlds created by
authors. I have always collected
unicorns, so when I was 18, I got a winged unicorn tattoo (or a horny Pegasus
as I fondly call it). So when I decided
to make a blog, I wanted magical with unicorns. I looked at lots of beautiful pictures that I loved,
but I was afraid to use because I wasn’t sure about copyrights on them. So I had my son take a picture of my tattoo
(which is not purple…my favorite color), and then I manipulated it to what you
now see as my blog banner. Is it
professional looking? Nope, but I
thought I did a good job for someone who isn’t creative, and it is me.
Anywho, I
just felt like sharing today about why my reviews are the way they are :)
Thank you
for stopping by to read my crazy thoughts ; )
