#PaytonChronicles Tour of To Eris - Human


Reviews
What are they worth?


Reviews are two sided issues. On the one hand, they're a key element for getting new readers. Reviews are recommendations that are out there for everyone to see. However, the other hand is out there with the knowledge that each review is a single person's opinion and are thus, by nature, very subjective.



Everyone loves when their book, or any other product, receives a good review. We like that people enjoy what we create, when they appreciate the work and love gone into every word. We like it even more when those people share their opinion with others. But, inevitably, there are going to be people out there who don't like it. It's not necessarily saying there's anything "wrong" with your story. You just can't please everyone. The way I look at it is, people who don't like your book are obviously not part of your target audience because you're targeting people who will like you book. (Even if they fall into the demographics of your target)

So, what is a review worth? The value is hard to measure and, like the review itself, is subjective. How much value do YOU put on the review? That is where your answer lies. If a review makes valid points, is well written, and professional... I value it more. It doesn't matter who wrote it. But if the review is inaccurate, questionably written, or unprofessional... I take it with the proverbial grain of salt.
