5 Book Review Rules Which Could Make Writers Hate You Less
This was a wonderful article on writing reviews. Take a look. I have been trying to get more reviews over the last month. After reading this article my need for reviews really have become less important.(sould I say my need as a review being feed back.)

You can’t switch on the Internet these days without seeing an author giving out about book reviews and how unfair/mean/reprehensible/soul-destroying they are. There is always a writer whinging somewhere about the tears they shed over a nasty review, how personal it was, and why so-and-so was out to destroy them.
