A review certainly does communicate value and good will to an author.<br /><br />Be sure to mention my review of your wonderful book. I'll put the link here: http://warrenbaldwin.blogspot.com/2010/03/only-angels-are-bulletproof-by-emily.html<br /><br />I have your two reviews of my book post on my blog on the right hand column.

Though, if I had a blog I imagine one of my topics would definately be the books I'm reading. ;-) And when I read a book that particularly impacts me or ends up on my favorite books list, I usually rave about it to friends! <br />Do I read book reviews? Yes and no... It depends on the book and how much information I know about it. I usually only read reviews if I'm unsure about the book's content. Otherwise I go by my own judgement. <br />Do I take book recommendations from friends? Again, it depends on the book. If a book recommended to me is completely not my taste, I won't even bother to look it up, but if it is I just might. ;-)Briannanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7765705155122104459.post-17728309160908627692010-04-02T15:53:41.768-07:002010-04-02T15:53:41.768-07:00Great point!

We SHOULD take time to write more of them. :-)Shannon O'Donnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299313309059235876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7765705155122104459.post-19050766231581620162010-04-02T13:13:46.364-07:002010-04-02T13:13:46.364-07:00Blogs have become very big in the review world.

Big enough for Thomas Nelson publishing to start their own program that gives free books to bloggers. <br /><br />I think it's because, after reading a blog long enough, we can get a sense of the blogger's taste and whether or not they match with ours. :)Emily Ann Benedicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15749623489746393109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7765705155122104459.post-44081909281352717082010-04-02T13:07:01.197-07:002010-04-02T13:07:01.197-07:00I run into so many wonderful bloggers who share th...I run into so many wonderful bloggers who share their insights on books and poetry. I have added a number of books to my reading list based on their recommendation. A novel becomes a real prospect for me when I get someone's personal take on it.
