The authors have called by goodreads for their failure to remove negative reviews of their novels before their release yet – with allegations that they constitute “abuse online”
Do not judge a book with coverage – or before it has a cover. According to what was reported, the book is bombed with negative reviews on goodreads before the generalization of proof copies so far. Worse, it is claimed that the site failed to remove it.
The author of the crime recently summoned GODREDS to not do more to prevent this type of negative “review shelling” before launching their novels. As a famous book review site, Goodreads, owned by Amazon, is a decision about the following reading. But Joe claims that they are not doing enough to “protect the authors from online abuse.”
“Many authors participate in the devastating experience of the soul to see their limited books before they are available to the original readers. Worse, like me, they feel that they do not get protection by one of the largest platforms in the industry.”

In a written comment article in favor of the seller, Joe claimed that her next movie, GILT TRIP, obtained a class classification of the stars on Goodreads-although it was not published yet. She added that no prior copies were also sent.
After feeling that he was forced to respond to the unknown references, Joe claimed that they were then complaining about the comment. This has prompted a good mail from GoodReads to advise authors to “refrain from confronting users who provide their books low.” Her suspension was removed later.
Although she confirmed that she “does not care about a single trivial review,” she expressed her frustration with the fact that “dwarf” was granted more protection by goodreads, and claimed that their actions constitute a form of “online abuse”.
Joe told the pluscinemaz.comthat she tried to follow her complaint about their behavior. In her e -mail, I told goodreads: “I answered this classification because I believe that the references are fraudulent – this book has not been published by guilt (the journey with guilt) yet or is available for reading. It is not possible that this is a real review.” She claimed that the user targeted all her novels with bad reviews, while publishing any other business reviews by other authors.
She received a response from Goodreads, saying they would be fulfilled in the case, but she claimed that no other action was taken. However, the review has been removed since then after contacting book researchers, the book seller said.

Millie Johnson, a romantic author, revealed to the researcher the book seller that she got a classification from one stars of a book whose copy editor has not yet been seen. But when she complained to goodreads, they claimed that they replied, saying that the references had “an ideal right to predict whether or not they enjoyed it.” The pluscinemaz.comarrived in Milli for comment.
Goodreads has been associated with the phenomenon of “reviewing the bombing” in the past. In 2023, the Guardian newspaper reported that some authors were avoiding using the site due to “medium” reviews.
One of the most prominent scandals appeared when the writer Kate Corrin was dropped by her publisher after he admitted to writing negative reviews about the authors competing with a fake account, as reported by the Guardian newspaper.
In the same year, goodreads pledged to face issues such as bombing of the review, such as the ability to “temporarily reduce classifications and reviews on a book during times of unusual activity” that conflicts with its guidelines.
