Denham Hall Critique
April 25, 2024

Simply, a true and honest critique of my book, and I agree with what and where my weaknesses were, so much so I was going to slightly alter the text where it could be improved but lazy me decided it was OK.

I am a reviewer for OnlineBookClub.org, and I absolutely love reading and reviewing books on this platform. Every book I get to read from OnlineBookClub.org adds to my knowledge and helps me develop in many areas.

I review books genuinely. OnlineBookClub.org also pays me for my published reviews. It feels really great to receive the review payments. They come on time.

If I ever have any questions, there is a support team to guide. All this only helps me get better. I am very thankful to OnlineBookClub.org and its team for doing amazing work, giving me the opportunity to read and review books, and making me a better person.

OnlineBookClub.org has provided an excellent platform for book lovers to connect, share their opinions, and discover new titles. The variety of available books is impressive, catering to various genres and interests. The user interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, making it simple to explore new titles and engage with the community.
One of the standout features of this platform is its high-quality book reviews. The review process encourages thoughtful and in-depth analyses, giving readers valuable insights into each book. The community is friendly and welcoming, with members always ready to share recommendations and discuss their favorite reads.
Overall, my experience with OnlineBookClub.org has been fantastic. The only minor area for improvement is the search function, which could be optimized to make it easier to find specific titles or authors. Besides that, I highly recommend this platform to fellow book enthusiasts looking for a great online book club experience.

Outstanding
March 30, 2024

OnlineBookClub.org had me nervous. I attempted to submit my book a few times and changed my mind out of fear of getting a 1 star, but I followed my gut and submitted it and said I'll just have faith in my work. The process was awesome. And to find out that the reviewer actually read the book and gave it 5 stars, I started crying and became overwhelmed. I almost threw my book series in the trash, but my four year old niece said she loves vampires, so I took a chance and released book 1. Thank you Online Book Club and to the wonderful reviewer. I greatly appreciate everything.

Review of Royal Gossip
March 17, 2024

I was very impressed with the reviewers report and especially interested in my spelling errors. Sometimes the English spelling ( and I am English) differs from the American spelling but I will definitely re publish the book and get the spelling the reviewer suggested corrected.

RE: 70888

Hi, Patricia,

Did you mean to deduct a star and rate us 4/5? It sounds like you have no complaints. However, if there is anything wrong that would cause us to be a 4/5 website instead of a 5/5 please do let me know so I can get that fixed asap. You can email me anytime at:

Thank you,

Stroke Survival Online Book Club review

I was very well pleased withh the review. With the blog I was assured that the reviewer honestly read the entire book and with the review I felt that the reviewer felt the inner feelings of the husband taking care of his spouse.

A scam
March 5, 2024

I wrote my first review which was looked over multiple times by multiple people for any grammatical errors and the site only had bad things to say about my review. They still continued to post my review though. I wrote a second review and was told I would get a $5 bonus for also posting a review on Amazon. I posted my review on onlinebookclub, using the critiques they gave me on my first one, then posted on Amazon. My review was given a 33% for plagiarism when I wrote the review 100% by myself. They also gave me tips for grammatical errors that weren't even made. For example, I wrote "in California" because that's where the characters lived but they tried to tell me that I needed to write "into California" instead, which is grammatically incorrect. The rest of my points were all taken off for plagiarism and then I was removed as a reviewer. I'm so annoyed. It seems as though they just don't want to pay me for my hard work. I haven't even gotten the $5 for posting on Amazon.

The folks at Online Book Club have been most helpful throughout the review process and the promotional aspects of my novel. I am very pleased with how the "Book of the Day" promotion was rolled out, and for the lead-up information as presented to me by Melissa et al. It will be very interesting indeed to see what the results of the promotion are re sales figures going forward.

Great opportunity
February 22, 2024

Onlinebookclub.org offers a unique opportunity for readers and writers. Although I don't work as a writer, I read books offered by onlinebookclub.org and leave formal reviews. In return, my reviews receive a formal, thoughtful, and helpful critique that helps me write better. In addition, I am paid for each review. Novice writers receive constructive feedback on their books, and I become a better writer while enjoying new authors. What a deal!

Recently, I did my first paid review with Online Book Club. I love reading, especially adventurous and spiritual stories, so it was a great fit for me. I didn't know what to expect at first, but the team was amazing. Their editors were really helpful in giving me feedback on how to improve my reviewing skills. They were supportive and encouraging, which I found really motivating. I'm grateful for their help and excited to continue working with them on this journey!
