      K Tempest Bradford is up for 2 #IGNYTEawards! Retweeted Mikki Kendall

      again, I reiterate: it was a 4 star review. FOUR STARS. Not 1, not 2, not 3, FOUR. This whole tantrum and fears about book launch ruining over 4 stars. I'm so outdone. Yes to everything Mikki said, but also how about authors also chill out about 4 flipping stars??https://twitter.com/Karnythia/status/1383900361585434626 …

      I get negative reviews. I ignore them. Because once I let the book go into the world, how other people feel about it is not something I can control. Authors who think less than perfect reviews are an attack? What part of publishing 101 did you skip? The audience gets to react.

      I think it was specifically her getting mad about people "rounding down" 4.5 stars to four rather than rounding it up to five and accusing this rule of being arbitrary Which, well, okay

      It's kind of both. The arbitrariness sure, but also, that the arbitrary distinction between rounding to a 5 or 4 could "destroy someone's book before it even gets a chance to breathe"?pic.twitter.com/B7HB8ceLVm

      I mean I guess it's a general complaint that reviewers are just random people who can use any system they want -- or no system at all -- to rate your book as they see fit Which I guess is a fair thing to be upset about but it also, you know, just how the world works

      Aye, if you don't like the fact people bring their own interpretations to a 5* system you maybe... shouldn't use websites which work on the basis of allowing people to award their personal interpretations of a 5* system. Or at least just leave it up to the publisher to handle.

      I mean, you don't really have a choice about your book being listed on Goodreads' catalogue (and if you did no publisher would stand for an author demanding it be delisted just to avoid bad reviews) But yeah it's a very bad idea for authors to engage

          A YA author once went in on me about my review of his book so I stopped using it in my class. It was an okay book and I would’ve continued but he was so nasty. So that cost him a big order each year from me.
