Authors are being hit by negative reviews on Goodreads before review copies are even circulated, with the review site allegedly failing to remove reviews.
Long-time romance author Milly Johnson said: “I had a one-star rating for a book that hadn’t even been seen by my copy editor. When I raised it with Goodreads they wouldn’t interfere as they said the reviewer had a perfect right to predict if they’d enjoy it or not.
What the fuck Goodreads?? This is like thoughtcrimes for books.
