I understand and respect that influencers are trying to make money, or are dedicated to the craft of influencing others. But it does seem a little…manipulative.
In the end, I wish authors didn’t have to worry about paying for reviews and/or ratings. I wish readers would leave them, with honest opinions and gentle feedback, and we could all live peacefully.
I know. That's never going to happen. Wishful thinking.
