2 reviews for one book?

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

2 reviews for one book?

Post by Wasif Ahmed »

I did a paid book review and got paid for it and while scrolling thought the forums found another official review of the same book. It wasn't a volunteer review. Is this normal?
When people say you've changed, it just means that you have stopped living your life, their way.

Latest Review: To Paint A Murder by E. J. Gandolfo

I have seen this several times for paid reviews. The authors sometimes pay for more than one review. It might be that they didn't like the rating they received the first time and are hoping for a better result. Another reason is that they just want additional reviews to use excerpts from when marketing the book.
