Frat House Troopers too, December 18. Loved that book...


this is the 2012 list: http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/15...




* Silver/Steel, published December 4th 2012
* Love Bites: A Feral Hearts Tale, published July 7th 2012
* Don't..., published December 13th 2012


Thanks!







I personally find that kind of behavior very tacky. Way to make sure I'll never read one of her books.


Hi, Enny. How do you feel about authors who vote for their books after they've been placed on the list by a reader? I apologize for the question but I'm relatively new to having novels here on Goodreads. I don't want to do anything that would offend a reader so your opinion would be extremely valuable to me. :D

What got me really upset was the fact that this author voted for her books on a lot of lists regardless of whether the books even belonged there and now there's another vote for it by an account which hasn't got any books by other authors on their list and also placed them on a lot of lists. That kind of behavior is are highly questionable IMO.

Thank you! :D

If READERS vote for your books that is awesome. That means they love it. But doing it by yourself, it will make it look like you put a big sign that said "PICK ME, PICK ME, LOVE ME, LOVE ME"
xoxo

Thanks, Ami, I appreciate the response. :D

Thanks :)

Might need a Librarian to update the incorrect info. As far as I know, Captive Prince was a free read (and still is) that the author posted on her Livejournal. Probably by popular demand, she got it published recently in Feb 2013.

I've also removed Don't... Not His Kiss to Take and Skybound since they were all published in 2012.


Removed.

I'd love to be able to export and sort these listopia lists by average rating or number of pages but it doesn't look like it's possible. It might help to post a message in the Goodreads Feedback Group where GR members are encouraged to make suggestions: http://www.goodreads.com/group/show/1...

I checked the voters. 3 of them haven't read it but 2 are those book bloggers that get ARC copies so I can't delete it.

Thanks Enny. I was getting notifications when someone commented on the list but it must have turned itself off.

Thanks---that makes sense.

I don't mind this as long as they vote for other books on the list too. I want them to be readers as well, and not just writers.

As long as it's genuine voting. Sometimes they have little groups with the same publisher who vote for each other's books. There's a few of them on this list unfortunately.


Haven't read it myself so I'll contact one of the voters on my friends list and see why they added it. Some reviewers seem to think there will be a romance in the trilogy (books 2 and 3 not out yet). Did you get that impression?

Mandy, I got zero impressions of a romance in Foxhole Court. OTOH, on the author's blog she says: "But have I mentioned yet how aggravating it is getting this couple together? They work so much better this way, seriously, and I don't regret reshaping the books' relationships, but that third person was the instigator and driving force. Without him there to get things moving, it's just like oh my god you impossible assholes one chapter after another.
Slowest. Relationship. Ever. Le sigh."
So it sounds like a relationship in the next book.

Starrynight, maybe we can give the author the benefit of the doubt and leave the book on the list until we see where the series goes :)

I didn't get the impression that there was going to be a romance type relationship. I didn't even get that the three main characters are gay. It just doesn't come up. It was a interesting story and I am glad I read it. I only read it because it was on this list and it is free. At the end, I did go huh, why was it on best m/m books for 2013. If the next books goes in that direction, then I can understand why it is on the list. Thanks everyone.
