I try to review as many books (that I read) as possible -- especially for unknown, new and "Indie" authors. That actually does amount to quite a few.

I only give "honest" reviews, but if I can't give at least 3 Stars -- or whatever constitutes a middle ground review -- I usually don't post a review.* Unless I feel that I was somehow misled or cheated.


I've never had an author directly ask me for a review. I would find that a bit "off-putting." On the other hand, I might be willing to provide editing and critiquing services ... if we could agree on a fee.



* I did, in fact, just write up a 2 Star review. It was for an Edgar Rice Burroughs book -- The Cave Girl. I didn't consider it nearly as good as his other work, and I doubt that I damaged his reputation any.
