Do You Write Reviews?

[[deleted user]]

I just learned that you can write and publish a review on Goodreads (I know, I'm very behind the times). Anyway, I was wondering: Do you always write a review? I haven't written any yet myself, but I found that reading my friends reviews is often helpful when selecting books.

I write reviews for all the books I read. Granted they aren't the best in the world but its my opinion of the book, how I like it and all.

[Lynn]

If I love the book, I'll write a short review, and the same for the books I hate. I do a book blog with two friends, so I post my reviews from that on here. The books they review, I write a short one on here.

It is according to how I feel at the time. So that would be a maybe?

[Olivia]

I've recently started writing reviews on each of the books I have read. After I finish nearly every book, I post a review. I recently started a blog, hoping that would serve as an incentive to write a greater number of reviews in a shorter amount of time.

I only have two reviews up because I only recently started writing them, but now I review every book I read. It's usually just a paragraph, maybe more if I feel very strongly about the book.

I recently wrote one review and I might start to do so more often, but I would only write reviews for books that I have clear opinions about that I can describe easily. Or if I feel strongly about the book, if I was expecting more, or if it was exactly how I hoped it would be, etc.

I try to always write reviews but I will always write one when/if I get the book for free (from the author)

[Kaitlin]

I dnt usually write a review on books but when I do it's normally if I have something negative to say about the book.

[Kennedy]

I never write reviews I've written maybe 2 but I can't write worth a flip lol so I stopped doing it.

I write reviews sometimes. It depends I guess on my mood.

[Samantha]

Now that I've started to become more active on goodreads I've started writing reviews. I think that I'm going to try and write a review for every book I read because reviews are a big part of whether it not I decide to read a book and I want to help people find books they'll love :)

[Samantha]

Is there a place on goodreads for blogs? Or are all the review blogs I see people posting links to all from other providers (like wordpress, etc)?

[Olivia]

All of the review blogs are hosted elsewhere, such as blogger and wordpress. Several members have posted links to their blogs here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

[Samantha]

Oh, thank you Olivia!! :)

I did a review for the first book that I read after becoming a member here and I guess that I will keep doing it. I think it helps those who might be interested in reading the book but not sure.
