I don't believe you can tag someone until you have made at least 10 posts. I will tag Scott for you so that he will see your post. @ScottHollyMichelle wrote:@Scott Thanks! I have one more question and I have looked through FAQ and the guidelines about making reviews and I can't find an answer or a place to ask the question. The book I am currently reading to review here has typos. I was submitting them to "Error" in my updates, but then it occurred to me that maybe that was not strictly what the Error section is for. Will it be okay (or possible) for me to either continuing submitting little things like that for changes or should I record them and submit an attachment in my review? Just a word doc or something. So far I have kept track of any errors I have come across so that won't be a problem on my end.
The Error report is not for the purpose you mentioned. As for your question about typos and other errors, I have never seen a review attachment like this. Normally reviewers take this into account when they review the book. Let's say there are a few minor errors. You might not even mention it at all or, if you chose to, you would probably say something like "there were a few minor errors, but they were not distracting." If there are many errors, I think you would have to take that into account when giving the overall rating. You would mention the errors as a general statement (not every single error) - this then becomes a part of the justification for the rating (along with other factors). It might help if you read some reviews on the site to get an idea. For example, someone might say that there are many glaring errors including spelling errors, missing words, incorrect tenses, and dialogue without quotes.
Keep in mind that a reviewer's job is not being an editor. When reviewing and rating a book, you consider several factors when coming up with an overall rating - writing style and quality are certainly part of that . Theoretically, a book might have 8 errors and you might still choose to give it the highest rating since you loved the book so much. I also think you have to look at the errors within the big picture - are there 8 errors, for example, in a 35-page book? Are there 8 errors scattered throughout a 400-page book?
