To Write a Book Review on Amazon or Order a Book

Note: Amazon will not let you write a review unless you have purchased the book from them.

  • On the Internet, type:   “Amazon.com” When the site comes up, you will see an empty white bar appear at the top of the screen, with the word “All” at its left.
  • Click on the down-arrow that says  “All”.  You will see a long list of items.
  • Scroll down to “Books” and click on “Books”

The empty white bar reappears with the word “Books” in the same little grey box at the left.

  • In the empty white bar, type in the name of the book and the name of the author: Perfect! A Story of Love and Suspense Sharon Hickey Sterling. (It doesn’t have to be in bold type.)

When the picture of the book comes up, next to it you will see five orange stars and a number. They represent how well the book was rated by readers and how many readers reviewed it. (None, if it is brand new.)

  • Click on the orange stars. Scroll down. Click on the red print “See All Customer Reviews”.

In a grey box at the left you will see “Write a customer review”.

  • Click on that. You will be asked to click on one of five stars to indicate how well you liked the book. (Anything from 3 to 5 stars is great!) You will see instructions to enter a title for the review. Keep it brief, such as “A Great Read” or “Not My Favorite.” Then you will see an empty field to type the body of the review–a sentence or two is fine. Be honest.   Happy reviewing!

Order a Book

Follow the above instructions. A picture of the book will appear, with fields to click on to buy a paperback print copy or an eBook. You will need a credit or debit card to purchase it. The screens will take you through the process, which includes entering your card info and mailing address if it’s a print book.
