Gift-giving season is in full swing and hopefully among all that wrapping paper is something you really want. No, not a car.
BOOKS
SOOOOOO MANY BOOKS!!!!
And you are going to review each and every one, right? Because you love your authors and want them to write more. Maybe you would like to read Kirsten S. Blacketer’s “How to Write a Helpful Review”. She found an amazingly powerful chart of “Constructive vs. Destructive Criticism”. I tried to follow it back to the original website (she provided links), but the site was down on the day I prepped this blog. (It’s Christmas time – give a girl a break y’all. Prepping is necessary for my piece of mind (not peace of mind, that is long gone).)
For the chart alone, you should view this blog. It’s how I can write one and two star reviews, and have the author thank me for it later! (Doesn’t happen often, but does happen at least once a year.)
Better yet, when you can write a five-star review.
I hope all the books you just got and gave are worthy of five-star reviews. Have a great Christmas-to-New-Year week.
