Thing is, they are their opinions. They are entitles to their opinions - in fact, that is what they are paid for. However, when a lot of people pay to take heed of the reviews, perhaps there is a pressure to be overly critical - or conversely, overly complimentary - to suit the audience. For example, I doubt American Pie was a hit in Saga Magazine…

So I believe we ought to change our way of thinking with regards to these articles. They aren’t reviews, so don’t take them seriously. Instead, use them as a way of getting to know the author!
