Besides which, it would be great if there were a site with reviewers that readers could build up a trust relationship with. Not to me, so much, as there’s an obvious bias! but to other authors out there. I’ve been trying to coax my mother into blogging book reviews: she is a voracious reader, and has a blog, and it would be really helpful. What is needed is something more durable. We’ve all heard the stories, if we haven’t experienced it ourselves, of the ‘Zon or social media or… deciding that this review, this post, this whatever opinion, is not worthy, and making it vanish. We need diversity, and putting up reviews on book sales sites is important. It’s something an author, any of us, cannot do. I have an idea, but it’s not something I can do. Only, not necessarily for the reason that popped into your mind.
