Has anyone used a paid book review service? At first blush, it seems kinda skeevy to "buy reviews" but I see that some very reputable companies such as Kirkus and Midwest Book Review are in fact paid services. I have also looked at IndieReader, BlueInk, and Self-Publishing Review (SPR).
Just wondering if anyone has utilized such a service, and what the results were? Or is there a stigma attached to "buying reviews" that indie/self-pub authors just don't want to touch?
