Recently I read an indie book from an author whose previous books I had generally enjoyed. But this latest book was just awful. It was slow and the writing so turgid that after a while I started to tune it out. I couldn't even finish it, which is something that rarely happens. I gave it a one-star review on Goodreads and now of course the author is incensed about it.
So the question of the day: When you read a bad indie book should you
- Give it an honest review
- Give it a falsely positive review anyway
- Say nothing
