Suppose you just finished a book that was well written, kept you engrossed in the pages and you hated for it to end. You are excited about the book and want to pass that information on to your friends: 1. that you did like the book; 2. why you liked the book. How many of us have told our friends, “I am reading a wonderful book, I bet you would like it too”. A review passes on your information to others.
From an author's point of view, I get excited reading that you liked my book. It makes me feel sort of 'warm and fuzzy'. So much time goes into researching and writing a book that we want some feedback. Of course, we really want positive feedback. This positive feedback, in the form of a review, helps us get our book out there to the public. Meaning … we sell more books. It also lets us know that our time was not wasted; that we produced a good product.
In my case, selling more books means giving more to the cooks represented in From the Kitchens of Pancho Villa.
Therefore, I ask you, if you have read this book, please leave a 'review' on this blog in the comments section on any page. If you can give it a 5 star rating, then please leave a review on Amazon.com. You need not have purchased the book on Amazon, just have an account with them.
Thank you!!!
