Can you read a book without reviews?



Reviews are very important promotional material for authors. Like in a movie, when you read opinions of audience, the book should have reviews.

When you want to pick awesome book between millions of other books, you will look for reviews.

It doesn't matter are these reviews good or bad, something in the book should intricate readers.

"The biggest shit I ever read. " "Find an editor."

"Don't spend your money."

Or:

"This book chills me out." "An adrenaline booster. " " Masterpiece."

The background of review should be various, a personal admiration for authors or support from friends.

If reviews are objective, it talks about a book. 

Now, what happens if the book is without reviews?

This is blank area. New books will be without reviews, but for a short time. As soon as reader is receiving a book, first reviews will jump fast.

If the book is a long time on Amazon, but without reviews, it means few things:

The book is not promoted.

The book is not visible.

The book is too expensive so nobody read it.

The book is not made in professional manner. There is an amateur cover, the book is not edited well and the blurb is not described good.

You might see a book with many ratings, but without reviews. This is usually work of trolls who will negative rate books. 

If you read a book without reviews, leave your review. Fill the blank spot, to give the air to the book. Someone can read your recommendation and take the book. You might help the author to reach more sales. 

Unnoticed book is like a beautiful girl who doesn't get attention. After someone notice her, things will change.

Swapping books - a devil's deal

  "I will read your book if you read and review mine." This is an example of author's deal when it comes time for reviews. Reviews is hard to get. If you sell books, it is still not guarantee you will get reviews. If I could get a review for every book I sold, it would be great. People will buy book to collect it on the shelves and leave it un-read. Or, they will read but not rate it. Many reasons are for not getting reviews, but some people don't know where and how to write reviews or are not eligible. That is the reason why authors will turn to other authors, with a proposition for review. The danger of such review is on Amazon rules: author can't review other's author books on request. I love to read indie authors and they inspire me, but I have my circle and I never accept offers to read someone I never heard about. Once I got a proposition :" Hey, I saw your review for XX author, can you write it for me, too?" I ignored it. When you have a deal ...
