I read a book was suppose to be Mystery/Suspense (no romance) and it turned out to be paranormal. According to the publisher (small press) readers are suppose to know what genre the book is by looking at a cover.
I gave the book one star. I was looking for a mystery/suspense not paranormal (just not my thing). Then the author emails me telling me I need to rate books on author's accomplishments and not on the actual book.
Read & finished a historical romance Saturday. Book was suppose to be set after the civil war (I think) and the author used duffel bag and casserole dish and beef noodle bake. Really don't think these are something that people would say during that time.
I am almost ready to give up on indie authors. (Sorry for any in here or reading this) But to have one tell me I need to rate a book on her accomplishments and not the book and then another one that cannot do any research before publishing. Just gives the ones who actually try to publish a good book a bad name
