Writer's Digest Self-Published Book Awards Review
I submitted Ripples to the Writer's Digest Self-Published Book Awards and I received the review today. On their evaluation scale of 0-5 and 5 meaning "outstanding", I'm happy to have received a 5 for plot and story appeal, and 4s in character appeal and development; grammar, punctuation and spelling; structure, organization and pacing; and production quality and cover design.
The characters in this novel are interesting and there is enough fantasy and adventure to keep readers engaged…I would definitely recommend this book to my young adult readers and look forward to the continuing saga of Aly, Landon and Aaron.
