When I write a review, I'd like to include a link to my own website where I have an expanded version of the review.
Hello: just adding to this update request, as it's one of the main features I am looking for.
I think the button we need for hyperlinks is already coded, because I see it as an option in the text boxes for the buddy-read comments.
But for some reason, the hyperlink button is not available in the text boxes for the regular reviews.
Adding a "yes please" on this one. I'd like to link to my reviews here on Bluesky, Mastodon, my own blog.
This is also helpful for linking to other reviews (if referring to another book I just read in the review I'm writing now) or sometimes linking out to another source when it's needed. Sometimes this is in relation to a relevant news article, or if I'm writing a negative review because a book is factually wrong and want to link to the primary sources instead of quoting or referring to research without citing it. Maybe that's a pretty specific example but... we can add links to our Reading Journal and I wish I was able to use links similarly in reviews.
