On some reviews I wonder though where the line is that gets crossed. Out of the goodness of your heart you don't simply take the time and effort and write a multi paragraph essay as a customer review. For me the majority of books get rejected before I even glance at a review - no matter how good the review is (whether deserved or not) won't matter when the book already lost because the blurp was not interesting enough (to me).
Now if you truly put that much effort into a very nice detailed review that is honest (e.g. also points out flaws and not just all hail praise) - and it got rejected by Amazon there is a simple solution: send the review to the author and see if they might be interested into adding them as an editoral review.
How often do I see a perfectly well written review that says "I don't normally write reviews, but I had to with this". And I wonder why? And why bother mentioning it?
