Interesting. I took a look at the cited reviewer Shirley P Johnson of the Midwest Book Review. On Amazon.com she has 642 reviews and I didn't find one book that was less than a four star review, most were 5 stars. I found almost no "critical" review in any of the submissions.
As for the Midwest Book Review, well, I'm not so sure that an all volunteer organization with no criteria for reviewers, other than having read a book, is probably all that well-repsected. Perhaps they qualify as the "largest reviewer in the country" based upon sheer volume, but that does not give them credibility. Just like Ms. Johnson's reviews, on the Midwest Book Review website, I cannot find a single critical comment any of the reviews I looked at. Most of them sound like they are just press releases.
