@talesofabookshelf: my formal apology to booktok x jks. This is just a reminder that you're allowed to dislike a popular book. You're also allowed to love it. Being critical about art doesn't mean that I am attacking the author personally, nor am I attacking you for loving it. I have not and will never tag an author in my reviews. This means that sending my video to the authors or tagging them in my comments is rude and uncalled for. I will always tell you MY honest opinion. And I am open to honest conversations in my comments. But trying to argue whilst not getting that people have different opinions and then name calling, will lead to me chuckling at said comments and then blocking. as is my right 🚫 To those of you that think only positive reviews live on tiktok, please, I implore you, don't limit yourselves. The whole point of this platform as creators is that we can find people who have similar tastes in books and share our true opinions. Anyways, if you're still here, thanks for listening 🤭 Oh yeah, sorry...just in case there is confusion... These are MY OPINIONS 💁🏼‍♀️ #BookTok #bookreview #booktokopinions #negativereviews

I blocked Alex Aster at the beginning when she was heavily marketing Lightlark in TikTok.

I want honest reviews before I go and spend money and time on a book. I want honest reviews on anything

I totally agree! There’s so many videos going round saying “don’t share negative reviews on booktok” but isn’t variety the spice of life!? If we all liked the same books it would be boring

No, opinions are only acceptable provided they are the same as theirs. You are absolutely allowed a negative review, but only if they agree. 😂😂

I gave a book that I paid $15 for a 2/5 stars today. I’m not happy. I applaud your honesty.

I love negative reviews. Negative reviews will sell me on a book way before a 5 star will.
