Thank you for sharing your perspective, and I agree that reviews play a significant role in influencing a reader’s decision once they discover the book. That said, reviews can also contribute to a book’s visibility on Amazon in several ways.
For instance, Amazon’s algorithm considers both the number and quality of reviews as factors when recommending books to potential readers. Books with more reviews are often featured in "Customers Also Bought" sections or on genre-specific lists, which can increase discoverability.
While reviews alone might not guarantee visibility, they work hand-in-hand with other elements like keywords, categories, and consistent engagement to make a book more discoverable and appealing.
It’s always a multi-faceted approach, and I’d be happy to explore or share strategies that combine these elements if you’re interested. Your books are so rich in history and storytelling that they deserve to be discovered by even more readers!
