What I learned today: You apparently can't use the word "Douche" in your Amazon book reviews...

But it begs the question of what do people do if they want to review an actual douche that they bought?

♥ WishfulMiss ♥ Lmao, Sounds like we have to get creative Sabrina! I have the same issue with my Amazon reviews. Gets frustrating quick when you have to censor everything.

Yes! There's only so many times you can say jerk in one review without going crazy lol

Really? Douche was the only word in my review that I changed before resubmitting and they accepted it. Next time I'll try douchebag lol

KAS That’s ridiculous! No wonder readers flock to Goodreads to write and read reviews.

Honestly I never read reviews on Amazon or even look at ratings. It's all Goodreads for me

Nenia Campbell That is so weird, because I don't even think that douche is really that bad of a swear? I relate to this status so hard though LOL.

Half the time I use the word "rape" it's censored, but then half the time it's fine??? And I feel like I've been allowed to say "shit" before - but also sometimes not.

And sometimes one of my reviews is pulled and I honestly have NO IDEA why.

They honestly make no sense to me I swear half the time they just choose random reviews to decline or remove
