Edited to add - As others have said, I don't see all that work and cost making a difference anyway. You can still review bomb existing books that have been released and cause the same fall in ratings and reviews if you were so inclined, which has also happened before.

Honestly though, stories like this are for the most part a tempest in a teapot. If Cait Corrain's nefarious schemes were never uncovered, I'd bet the impact of those nine scathing reviews would have been negligible. Unless one of the impacted books never generated more than those nine reviews. But that would say more about the quality of the book than all nine reviews.

In the grand scheme of things, I agree with ZodWallop that her review count, while annoying, would not have had a continued negative affect on these books as long as the other reviewers did not review and rate with 1-2 stars as well. This did not ruin anyone chances of their book succeeding despite what some are saying. |
