The Animistic Book Review

    Book reviews affect a book’s visibility online

    Book reviews open books to new audiences

    Book reviews create community and belonging

    Book reviews foster awareness

    Why book reviews are animistic

    This will be one of many appeals to review From Elder to Ancestor online, and really any of my books, and books you’ve enjoyed by other authors.

    Online reviews matter.

    And they’re animistic.

     

    There is an animistic aspect to leaving book reviews. When you review books you create community. You let other people know that the book is what it says it is and can be trusted. I know most of you in some personal way and I appreciate all the good things you’ve shared about your experience of the book with me, and I know these things are cherished and precious. But it’s what you say to others about it that deepens its life.

    Thank you.
