Okay so when I finish reading a book I loved, I’ll often write a short review or give it a good rating and leave it at that. But with books I hate it’s different, in fact sometimes I’ll be midway and not want to continue reading but my desire to “hate” on it properly and my curiosity to how worse it can get will motivate me to finish it so I can write a long essay on why it was bad. It’s not tiring, it actually comes very easily but I can’t help but think sometimes if I have an issue or other people might feel or act like that.

    OP, I think you are in the minority of folks who put in the effort to write A review - long or short.

    I say minority in a nice way since writers yearn for feedback, especially in a digital era where reviews on forums like Goodreads and Amazon can make or break sales and ratings.

    Keep reviewing to motivate writers!

    I love writing why books are bad, the books of my country are the best for this.

    You’ve basically just described how the internet works. You are not alone.

    I do the same. But specifically when a book I had high expectations for falls short.
