If you would rather remain silent, you certainly have that option... but speaking as a MobileRead author who has published on Smashwords, I can say that
any honest review is welcomed. If you dislike a story, for whatever reason, and can put that reason into words, you might save someone else with your particular mindset from making a poor choice. Or they might be looking for precisely the sort of story you dislike, and your negative review could convince a new reader to take a chance anyway!
So far, "We Don't Plummet Out of the Sky Anymore" has been blessed with a number of reviews from dedicated MR readers (thank you,
cbarnett,
dreams and
DixieGal!) and one review from someone whose moniker I did not recognize (anyone know whether Lene Jorgensen is a member here?). It is my extreme good fortune that each of those has been five stars, and that the readers enjoyed the writing.
On behalf of all authors whose work you value enough to review, I say:
