Goodreads, a “a prominent platform for book discovery,” is taking steps to combat review-bombing: a practice where people who haven’t even read a book, leave negative reviews for the book in an effort to drop its rating. This development is significant for efforts to promote greater diversity in publishing, because often “diverse” authors are the ones being targeted by review-bombing campaigns.
