It sure blows my mind when my review can be an awesome 5 stars and I can read some people’s one star reviews and huge disappointment after reading the same book! I think I will write a book about that---that, for me—it is not the book! It is the reader!<br /> Oscar Romerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05995131851680831650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1929369424588700011.post-79857586779611175722017-02-25T18:47:40.411-06:002017-02-25T18:47:40.411-06:00Thank you for sharing this information!

Or do you mean that book reviews (if the book was received from the publisher) are technically considered advertisements, so we should follow the FTC rules for ads? Is this true even if the review contains constructive criticism or negative feedback, (since an advertisement, to my understanding, is by definition a positive portrayal/recommendation of a product)?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1929369424588700011.post-29652128696486639942013-06-01T20:09:09.073-05:002013-06-01T20:09:09.073-05:00Very helpful post -- thanks for sharing.

Although I say it might be a good idea to look at my blog before sending me a book, this article is making me think that I could be more explicit about the fact that I look critically at every book I review and my praise is rarely unqualified (a variation on "my blog is not your advertising space").Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17975028272143207826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1929369424588700011.post-91333515220416495322013-05-22T14:54:57.859-05:002013-05-22T14:54:57.859-05:00Great info, Tasha!Great info, Tasha!Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02706544792110129160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1929369424588700011.post-27928418432367666442013-05-22T13:51:34.100-05:002013-05-22T13:51:34.100-05:00A very timely article for me.
