Featured review site: Amethyst Bookwyrm Reviews
I saw Kirsty in GoodReads, and liked her reviewing style. She is very clear and well balanced. She has a review website and reviews fantasy, even when her preferences go toward YA, so I contacted her. She decided to give Pearl a try and put the book in her TBR (To Be Read) list.
A month later (Christmas got in the middle), the review is up:
Review of The Pearl, by Amethyst Bookwyrm Reviews
This review, like the others, is great: clear and well balanced. Her knowledge of the genre is evident in the way she compares elements of the book with others, and the places where she puts the magnifier. She even makes recommendations of who might enjoy the book based on other titles.
Here is my review of the reviewer:
Communication: Four dot 99 stars. Her communication skills are great. She is very clear in what she is going to do and how, and she is true to her word. We had some lil problems with the email to send the book at the beginning, but everything was sorted out.
Integrity: Five stars. Her reviews are her opinion, a very knowledgeable opinion. At the same time, she keeps the view of the reader, instead of taking the job of an editor.
Quality of reviews: Five stars. She provides very interesting insights in her reviews about who the characters are, and why they caught her eye. She also talks about the cons of the book in her view, and who might enjoy them.
Overall, a great reviewer. Highly recommended to seek advice.
