Sometimes though, if a book has a bunch of 5 star reviews, but I thought it wasn't very good, or had really bad grammar, I will go ahead and post a negative one, just to balance out the others. |

Nixlapi, I bought it for full price the other day when you mentioned she'd been picked up by Penguin. I just returned it [thankfully it's within the 7 days] and will re-buy. Thanks so much for the heads up [both times!] |

I agree with negative reviews help balance out all the fluffy ones. After seeing all the reviews posted for ARCs and how it's done. I am rethinking of how much one can trust a book with good reviews. I suppose it have to be in the numbers but where does that starts? 25? 50? 75? Before when I went to look for Indies I would look at the review amount and I do look at the negative ones. Now I see how the process is done. How a reviewer might feel pressure to like a book. It will make rethink posting indies that might look good. I don't want everyone to wind up with a bunch of junk in their archives. Then their are some book with bad reviews that I love! Take Suzanne Robinson's one of her books I read had nothing but bad reviews I don't why it's was an amazing book. Now one of my favorite books I have read. It's really hard to know what to believe when it comes to reviews on Amazon or Goodreads even. |

On Sale @ Amazon $0.99
Wild Orchids by Karen Robards Originally published in 1986 (Contemporary Romance) Note: I own the hardback edition of this. This was written in a long time ago so keep that in mind. It's not a Political Correct cookie cutter romance. I am thrilled to have this in ebook. I must reread it, it's been years. Original Blurb: Quote:

There are plenty of authors that I consider favorites and auto-buys where I don't like each and every book of theirs. In fact I can't think of a single author on my keeper shelf where I love every book of theirs. Quote:

See, there's your first mistake.
