I am not sure where exactly to post this question, so I figured that I would start here! lol My question is, What is the difference between a beta reader and a book reviewer? Are they the same thing? I have a book review blog (http://www.historicalfictionobsession...), and have been reviewing books for authors for several years now. Is this the same thing as beta reading, or do beta readers provide authors with a different type of service? I am interested in learning more about what exactly a beta reader does/is to see if it is something I would like to pursue.
