Loralee’s Comments (group member since Oct 20, 2015)

Loralee’s comments from the Review Group group.

Thank you, Amanda. Your 1st review is complete!

Yes, the reason I asked for you to check if you had reviewed the four people above you, or if the four people below you had reviewed you, is that if it had happened, there would be serious conflicts since we must not be doing reciprocal reviews. You are to review the four below you. The four above you are to review you.

Great! We are FINALLY all good to go!

Okay, we’re ready!

Please remember the commitment you are making to your fellow group members. If you pull out after the start date for any reason it is the other members who will be faced with the problem of finding a replacement, or missing out on reads/reviews, through no fault of their own. Please don’t ask the moderators to chase after replacements as we just don’t have the time.

It is the responsibility of the author to get their book to their readers in a format the reviewer can manage. Everyone must be able to provide and accept PDF. You may buy or borrow the books you are due to read if you wish, and I’m sure the author will appreciate the verified review, but IT IS NOT COMPULSORY. There are no set dates for the start of each round. You can each work at your own pace, within the limits of the round deadlines.

All reviews must be posted to GR. We also encourage members to post on Amazon. When you have posted your reviews, please post the links to each of your reviews, not the book page in this thread.
The mod of each round will record whether members have posted reviews on Amazon and for the good of all, members who persistently fail to post reviews or DNF reviews to Amazon, will find mods less than willing to add them to subsequent groups.

Postings to other sites are by agreement by both author and reviewer.

If I’ve missed something that results in you being asked to review someone who has already reviewed you, please let me know asap.

To exchange book files, my advice is to use PM to give email addresses to each other (save the chance of spammers getting your addies from this open forum).

Setting up and modding these rounds is a labour of love, with a lot of emphasis on the ‘labour’. If you want to show appreciation for all the hard work we admins put in for the group, you could download one of our books as a ‘thank you’.

We're almost there! Just waiting on Balroop, and J.R.!

I have checked, and I am good to go!

Welcome, Zeecé! It looks like you have no conflicts, but to make sure, let's do roll call again.

Everyone, I think we might be good, now!

Everyone, please check the 4 people above you and make sure you've never reviewed them. Then check the 4 people below you and make sure they've never reviewed you. (The list wraps, so 10 is above 1.)

Here is a list for your convenience.

To check to see if you've reviewed the people above you, go to your own profile. Under your picture, click the link that shows how many reviews you've done. It should say "X reviews" (X being how many reviews you've written.) Then in the box that says "Search and add books" type in each name of the four people above you. If you haven't reviewed any of them, you're clear there.

To check to see if any of the 4 people below you have ever review you, go to each of their profiles. Under their picture click the link that shows how many reviews they've written. Then type your name in the box that says "Search and add books". If none have reviewed you, you are good to go!

After doing that, assuming that you are clear both ways, come back here and type "Good to go!" or something similar.

Once all ten people have done so, we will be ready to begin!

Everyone, I'm so sorry this round is taking so long to fill. Hopefully someone will join soon who will be able to fit into Haya's spot. As it is, everyone is stuck in place. I don't think I'd be able to move anyone around without review conflicts.

I hope we get that last spot filled, soon.

Oh, I'm sorry for that, Haya! I hope you are able to join more rounds in the future.

We'll wait a few days longer for Haya to respond.

Great! Just waiting on Haya, now.

Still waiting to hear back from J. R. and Haya! Are you both good to go?
Haya have you gotten your Amazon review posted on the one for one thread finished? Also, remember to make your bookshelf available for us to view.

I have checked both above me and below me, and I'm good to go.
Everyone else, please do the same! Don't rely on memory. Please check!

That would have put me above Gene, and Gene has reviewed me. If I could have slipped Gene into either spot 2 or spot 8, I would have. But his conflicts would not allow it.

That would have put him above you to review you, and Gene says you've reviewed him before. So we can't have Gene reviewing you.

Since six of us have said that switching it to a General round is fine, and no one has dissented, I've changed it to a General round. Hopefully we'll get those last two spots in in the next few days!

Everyone, this round is taking a while to fill. Would you have any objections if I changed the round to a General round to fill in those last two spots, or would you prefer to wait a bit longer?

Let me know what you think!

Thanks, Angela! I tried switching spots around, but it does look like there are too many conflicts to fit you, in my group. I'm glad you fit into the 18+!

Welcome, J.R.! I was able to fit you into spot 4.
Thank you for that, Terry.

Two spots to fill!

Angela might fit in my group. Her book is for children, so it would be a good fit for the Clean group here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... I'd just need to know what her conflicts are in group 337, and if she's willing to join it.

Thanks okay, Marcel! Thank you for the review!
