How did you come up with your rating system, and could you explain more about the rating system? How long does it take you to get through, say, an eighty thousand-word book?

There has only been one book submitted that I’ve had to set aside due to the sheer number of grammar errors. We know that self-published authors don’t have the resources for a professional editor most of the time, so we overlook the fact that there will be more errors than a traditionally-published book. If a book has a great plot, great characters, but the grammar is less than perfect, how do you deal with that? We don’t “look” for anything specific, if there is something that catches our eye, we mention it in the review. We take minimal, or mental, notes as we go along, but a majority of the writing takes place after we have finished the book. How do you review a book? Is it a read first, and then make notes, or do you make notes as you go along? I was hard to watch, so we decided to help. I realized the writing community on that platform is full of indie and self-published authors who are pouring their heart and souls into their books, but only selling a couple copies, and have no reviews.

I work in marketing and advertising, and I have seen many industries change over the last few years due to digital innovation.
