What do you do when that pesky review makes you work for it?
I do not really have that problem, it is more that oh I should write that review! And then the clock is too much, and I leave it for another day.
I do not overthink my reviews. I write them in my own style. They are my thoughts as they are at that time. But sure if there is a really pesky one I just write, do not stop, do not think. Just write
I write, then re-write and keep going until I get it the way I want it. I try not to overthink it also. Happy reviewing!
ReplyDeleteWe all have our ways :)
DeleteOh girlfriend I envy you. I write, re-write, re-write like it, re-write, re-write, love it, re-write, re-write. Really love it post it, edit it LOL :)
ReplyDeleteAnother re-writer, I just can not
DeleteI'm pretty much the same. If nothing comes to mind at the moment, then I step away and wait until it comes to me.

This is the way
DeleteThat sounds like a good way. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is the way
DeleteSort of stream of consciousness reviews! I have to write mine right after I read and before I pick up the next book.
ReplyDeleteYes! That is my process :D
DeleteI think I'm the same way.
ReplyDeleteIt works well
DeleteI love your review style. I've tried to be more free flowing, but it just doesn't work for me.
ReplyDeleteIt does not work for everyone
DeleteWhen I am having a hard time with a review, I go do something else and think about it for a bit and I usually can work it out.
ReplyDeleteThat is a good way too
DeleteI do the same
ReplyDeleteI write what I'm thinking right after I read, but if the words aren't coming I just wait a few days.
ReplyDeleteWaiting can be good
DeleteSome books. They stick in your mind but when it comes to writing down those thoughts...scatter brain!!
ReplyDeleteLol, so true!
DeleteI hate it when a review won't come. I try to just make them short and sweet then. I struggle with writing reviews, but I try not to let them tangle me up as much as I did in the past. I like your method.
ReplyDeleteYes do not let them tangle you up!
DeleteI'm like you - I just write my thoughts. I do have times when I just don't seem to want to write at all too 😂
