Option to Report Reivews
O

I've noticed a few books I'm reading have gotten "review bombed" by people who very clearly haven't read the book. I'm all for making sure authors are treating sensitive subjects with respect, but when the "reviews" are entirely wrong about the contents of the book and are very clearly from people who haven't read it, there's an issue. It would be great to be able to report reviews as spam or even a "review bomb" type option. This might create too much work for the team, but it's something to think about for the future.

I'd like to add my vote here too, as I've noticed some reviews in which reviewers are hurling abuse at authors, which seems like something we should be able to flag for removal.
In light of the recent CAIT scandal this is top of mind for a lot of people and will be an important feature, Maybe even the option to report the user in whole if necessary and not just the review.
We'll be working on a review policy and a way for people to flag/report reviews in-app!
