This weeks question
Q: Have you ever bought a book BECAUSE of a bad review?
A: No not really. Well unless it's by an author I've read before and I simply cannot believe the reviews are all bad! If I found a bad review of a book I was interested in I would always search out other reviews too so I could see what other people thought.
Lets get following!

Reviews are very subjective aren't they? However, bad reviews do pique my curiosity. Can a book really be as bad as they say? New follower. Here's mine: My FF
ReplyDeleteI always want to read books with bad reviews, just to find out if I feel the same.. But if there are a LOT of bad reviews ranting about the same thing, I might just pass it.

ReplyDeleteI agree with finding more reviews if I like the sound of a book.

I think it depends on whether I agree with the reviewer. Like.. If someone says "I am a big fan of lovetriangles and in this book there was a great one!" then I'll know that, being a lovetriangle-hater I won't enjoy it very much. *g*

I hope I don#t review twice here. I just left one and then there was an Error Message and blah. >_< Anyway, with me it's mostly that it depends on whether or not I agree with the reviewer. If they like lovetriangles and give a book with a lovetriangle 5 stars, then I, being a lovetriangle hater, am pretty sure that it might not be for me.
