If this is going to work

[Sean]

We need some authors to start the group working.

Since no one has pushed five other books we need to start somewhere.

Lets get some books listed for reviews. I have one to start with and am willing to read ten to list a second.

Here is mine, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

I will send a PDF or other format on request.

[Hannah]

Hello everyone - I'd like to list one of my books.
Your Blood Is A Lovely Colour
Will gladly read and review PDFs. Sean, I'd love to give 'Sasha's PDF a read (my email address is hanarbuthnot@hotmail.co.uk) - funnily enough, Sasha is the name of my beloved main character in the book I'm listing here! What a lovely coincidence.

Because of amazon's no review swapping policy, I cannot review your book. The next person should give you a review and I will review theirs and the next four after.

You will skip the next one and review five after that.

If we keep the chain going and do not overlap reviews it should work fine.

I will send you a PM for an email address.

[Hannah]

Aha okay - leapfrogging! Fab. Should have your book read within a week, would usually be quicker but am swamped with work at the moment.

[A.C.]

Awesome - getting some where.

Sean: I'll review Hannah's book and if you can review mine we're all squared away for the time being. I'll forward you the PDF.

Great insight btw about review swapping. Will add this aspect to the rules. Once we have the numbers and a member finishes their 5 they should post a message to the board along the lines of: 5 DONE, followed by links to their 5 reviews.

Hannah,
Looking forward to reviewing your book. Will send you an email with which to forward me the PDF.

In the mean time, why not go ahead and add the book you're submitting for review to the bookshelf.

Also, share this group to all your goodreads/author peeps out there so we can start growing.

[Sean]

Sounds good. I will send you a PM with my email address.

[Hannah]

Hi Richard, I've read the blurb of your book and it sounds fascinating! I love a book that breaks the rules. Would love to give it a read.

[A.C.]

Welcome to the thread Richard - sometimes there's no rushing art, is there?

If anyone is still interested in reading and reviewing 'Your Blood Is A Lovely Colour', I've just set up a Review Competition where every review posted for the book on Amazon or Goodreads until 7/08/2015 enters the writer into a prize draw to win one of three prizes; a free personalised children's book, a free signed copy of 'Your Blood Is A Lovely Colour', or a £5 Amazon gift card.
