How Do Authors See Reviewers of Their Books?

There's this article that I came up upon as I was scrolling through my Twitter timeline. It was a story of how author, Amy Spalding, made a Goodreads Young Adult Bingo, during her spare time.

OK guys I did something great with my lunch hour. pic.twitter.com/E06VEEgVXf

This garnered a lot of attention from both authors and reviewers, both positive and negative. It especially hit some reviewers.

@theames guess only way not to get ridiculed is to give 5 stars to all the books to not get hate from you guys. very mature.

I am a reviewer and as much as I found myself reading the bingo card, got a good laugh from it, analyzed I was some of the boxes to be filled and then realized that other reviewers got to see this, it hurt me.
