Any reviewer who expresses rage and loathing for a novel is preposterous. He or she is like a person who has put on full armor and attacked a hot fudge sundae.

I always say reviews say almost MORE about the reviewer and the reviewer’s intelligence and education than about the book, especially if they go on for any length.
Or make some short uninformed comment that gives away their bias.
I have a policy – I must have read the entire book. I must have liked the book enough to reread it to look for strengths and flaws.
Needless to say, I leave no wholly negative reviews, although I do tend to go on at length.
