A little tip for you – something I knew about and yet I never did until I realized I was wasting money on books that I knew I wouldn’t enjoy as soon as started to read them.
Read the excerpts. Many, many books offer the first x number of pages for your reading pleasure, completely free of charge. (At least on the Kindle
I’ve begun doing this and hopefully it will cut down on the number of duds that I buy. It is extremely hard to maintain frequent reviews when I won’t review a book unless I think it is at least a little worth your time to read it. And unfortunately I can’t afford to buy hundreds of books that I don’t enjoy.
I completely understand why so many people are frustrated by the chaff that is out there. The worst part is, many of the books I refuse to review would have gotten at least three or maybe even four stars if the author had hired a really good editor.
Feel free to impart any suggestions you might have for future books!
See you soon.
