To clarify as this has caused confusion, my reference to supporting without buying/borrowing are the bottom few entries on the list. You can support through sharing posts etc. Supporting with reviews is for those who have read/borrowed a book. Clearly keeping to the character limit here didn't work.

041

Amy McElroy @amymcelroy.bsky.social · 04/04/2026

There is something special about reading/hearing that someone enjoyed your work. There are plenty of ways to support authors even if you don't buy/borrow a book. Reviews really help or even a rating and you could make an authors day!
