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’.

Great job, everyone! Everybody has posted that they’re good to go! Give me a day or so, and I will set up the reading round with lists of whom you’re reviewing, who is reviewing you, and the various deadlines for each.

Stacey, are you good to go?

Hello, everyone! We’re still. Waiting for Stacey, Jason, and Audrey to post “Good to go,” and then we will be!

For myself, I am good to go.

Welcome, Juliette!
Okay, everyone! Let's try this again. Check the 4 people above you and make sure you've never reviewed them. Check the 4 people below you and make sure they've never reviewed you. If the 4 people above you have reviewed you before, that's okay so long as you have another book they can review now. If you have reviewed any of the 4 people below you, that's also okay so long as they have another book you haven't reviewed.

Once you have done that and made sure you have no conflicts, post "Good to go," or something equivalent here. We can begin once all 10 of us have posted "Good to go".

Juliette, do you have any clashes with any other members? Have you reviewed any of the people above spot 7 or been reviewed by anyone below spot 7?

No worries, Jenny! I hope you can get into another group soon.

Shucks. It looks like Jenny will have to drop out since she has no other book and Molly has reviewed it. Sorry, everyone!

We still have one open spot.

Personally, I am good to go.

Everyone, it looks like *fingers crossed* we have our ten. Check now to make sure you have never reviewed the 4 people above you, and that the 4 people below you have never reviewed you. If you have been reviewed by anyone above you, that's fine, so long as you have another book for them to review. If you have reviewed any of the 4 people below you, that's also fine, provided they have another book for you to review.

If all this checks out, EVERYONE post "Good to go" or something along those lines. Once all ten of us have done so, we will be ready to start.

Juliette, as soon as your 4 Amazon reviews have been posted in your other group, let us know. If that spot is still open, you’ll be welcome to join this one.

Welcome, Robbie.

There is still one spot open.

Everyone, please make sure your books are available on Amazon in order to get Amazon reviews.

Welcome, Jason!

Audrey is right. Once we have all ten people and have ensured that there aren't any conflicts, you'll be told which people will read you and which people you will read.

Sorry, Angela. I think you are right. It looks like there are too many conflicts to fit you. Unless someone can see a way to fit you in without conflicting with the current members.

It looks like we need just one more person to fit that last spot.

Welcome, Stacy and Cindy! Molly, as long as you have not left a review for Audrey, either here or on Amazon, you should be fine to be reviewed by her.

Molly, it looks like I can squeeze you in between me and Ann.

Stacey, do you have any clashes with any of the other people already signed up? (Have you reviewed them or been reviewed by them before?) Once you let us know, as long as there are no unresolvable review conflicts, I'll fit you in.

Everyone: Has anyone reviewed or been reviewed by Stacey before?

Welcome, Audrey! Keep an eye out as others join and let me know of any possible conflicts.

Thanks, Jenny! I hope you can get in a new group soon.
