Teen Critic discussion

So, do you usually review books?

Yeah, but lately I've been really lazy with it. Before I'd crank out a review on every book--now it's about once every three weeks.

That used to be what I do, but if I don't review the book right away, I'll never do it, so I almost always review the books now :)

Ha ha, smart! I should probably do that more often--half the time I wanna review something, I get this awesome one in my head and then I sit in front of my computer and nothing comes out. Ah well.

I know, reviewing can be hard!

Same here, but I have written some pretty long, detailed reviews in the past.

I know, I'm the same way. I wrote a review for a book I had rated 3.5 stars about two weeks after finishing it, and I was thinking...wait, what didn't I like about this again? xD

I have a new booktubing channel, where I will be posting reviews, so check it out- https://m.youtube.com/user/theliterar...

Awesome channel!! (:

I review whenever I can kick my lazy butt into gear :P

Lol I know what you mean. I have around 12 different books waiting to be reviewed!

I try to review the books I think stand out, whether good or bad. But I've not been on Goodreads very long so I don't have that many reviews.

I do, but only on the books that I feel the need to review.

I recently wrote a really long one that I thought was pretty good, but my computer malfunctioned and I lost it. So, I didn't end up writing that review. ugh.

Yeah, I know right? It was my first review in like a month too. Grr.

Oh well. It was the author's loss! Heh...heh..even though...he's a double-time best-selling author...erm..

Haha, that's so true! Definitely the author's loss xD

I usually review all books that I read, unless it was just completely unbearable and I'm bound to say something really mean about it :P

You're right! Totally the author's loss XD

Oh wow, really? When I hate a book I feel even more of a desire to review! I'm actually really bad at reviewing books I like a lot.

I don't like to say really rude things about books that I really disliked, because, ultimately, I still believe that the author put a considerable amount of work into writing the book and I just feel really guilty about ranting about it.

I agree! Even when I DNF a book I always try to say something positive about it.

Oh, that's really nice of you actually. I can't imagine doing that myself though. I get really opinionated sometimes.

Haha, do you have a blog, Lo?

Wow. That takes skill :)

I'm the same way! If I hated it,the review is always super long. If I loved it, I always have to think of stuff to say. XD

Not really.. I only review the books I really LOVE or really HATE! ;)

Me too.

Selene wrote: "Me too."

I don't really have time anyways ;)

Lol.

I only review if the book has made a big impression on me. If I just feel meh about it then I really don't have much to say.

I would only review a book if it was either really good or really horrendous.

Ashley wrote: "I would only review a book if it was either really good or really horrendous."

Same here.

The chances of me reviewing are sort of like a game of darts for me. If I really, really loved the book, I sit down and take the time to write a really long review. Most of the time, however, I finish the book, stop thinking about it, and move on. I find that not writing a review right after reading it makes me lose all interest in ever writing one. That being said, I have a bad habit of reading an entire book in one go (I can't sleep on an unfinished book), so oftentimes I read two or three books back to back in one day and am too pooped by the end to write.

It's the same for me! If I don't write a review right after I finished the book, I never will.

Sometimes. :)

Just finished writing a review for . Please check it our here on my blog:

I used to review books on my own personal blog ages ago, but life got in the way and I just didn't have time. I've been really bad about not reviewing here. I rate books all the time and when I go to review it, I get so caught up reading other people's reviews that I just lose motivation to do it. And then I inevitably see a review that says everything I was going to say anyway so I think, "What's the point?" Writing "ditto" on every post would be really boring, lol

I didn't review books until I came to goodreads and now whenever I finish a book I try to review it (although it doesn't always work out)

I usually reviewed the Warriors books I had just finished. Now, I review books frequently.

I use too review every book I read but stopped because I was reading way too many books, but I have started again just recently. Reviewing books can be very hard at times.

I plan on writing a good review on Divergent. :)

No I don't review I rarely review maybe I reviewed a couple of books since I started reading but I rate every book I read

I review most of the time but I especially review when I get a free copy from the author

Oh yeah, definitely

I'm guessing you loved it because you put a sector name into your user!

I like to do review books. I think it helps other people to know if the book is good or not!

I usually just review books on my blog, not on here :P

I try to put reviews on books that I've read. Sometimes it's just difficult for me to talk about some books and other times I'm just too lazy to. :P I like voicing my opinion on books, so I try to review as much as I can.

I review when I feel like it. Usually when I review I try not to make it very long though. Unless I love the book or hate it with a burning passion (I review them here on goodreads). I rather discuss the book with others that have read it ,so that's why I made my own group on goodreads and also join other groups hoping to meet more people that have read those same books and what they thought about it.
