I'm more likely to pick up something new by an author I've already read or by somebody I've met at a release party or on someone else's FB page. I also love box sets (yes, I know it's a lot of work for an author to write a good story to contribute and that you make even fewer peanuts when they sell) but I'll often pick up a box set that contains one or two authors I know and then read the entire bunch hoping to discover someone else whose work I might like.<br />Maybe I'm not typical and other folks do read those reviews. I know I do occasionally receive notices that somebody's flagged a review I wrote on Amazon or Goodreads as helpful so I guess someone is reading them.<br />Hope this helps.Aurora Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05285791890488659630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150215840280925269.post-62795352217352190422014-11-20T15:23:52.069-08:002014-11-20T15:23:52.069-08:00Negativity usually gets the most from other's ...Negativity usually gets the most from other's that are negative about life. When someone is miserable they seek it out. Not necessarily a reflection on a book or author but an attempt to get attention and up themselves so to speak. They have yet to learn that although misery loves company, not many love misery. I find when reading negative comments most are trying to put down the Author. I do not feel they are helpful when I am looking for a review as they mostly are the ones who have no books of their own and if they were so much better then where are theirs. I tend to ignore them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
