Where nerds—and other cool peeps—fall in love

Yes. Yes. Yes! Reviews are mainly for your fellow readers; they help them understand what they’re getting into when they read a book, so the reader can make an informed purchase.
So why do I care? Well this is how it works: If you love a book, a great review gives it more visibility, which leads to more people reading it and more revenue for the author, so I can write more books without worrying if the electricity bill will get paid this month (or adding on a 5th job, which takes time away from my writing the next book you’ll love). Reader reviews are the second most powerful thing a fan can do to support an indie author (outside of buying the book or requesting it from your library).

Even a star rating helps, especially on big platforms like Amazon and Goodreads. But a sentence or two with that? Golden.
