Carl Lee (carllee2850) | 12 comments I’m willing to read and review one book.

There are conditions… (isn’t there always)

You must be able to send me a print copy. (located US 48) (I do most of my pleasure reading by the lamp stand light at night to relax while in bed. Love the feel of paper at that time)

I’d like to pick an Author published on Amazon.

This is totally open ended. No promise as to when I’ll finish and complete the review.

I believe Authors should be compensated for their work. However, I will only send a check to the return address if I’m able to give a positive review.

Because the review will be my opinion of your work, I will have sole discretion over what I write.

I will email a copy of my review to the Author prior to publishing it. At that time, you can let me know whether you want it published to Goodreads and Amazon or not.

I’m open to most genres, so leave a link to the book blurb on Goodreads.

I will choose which book to read based solely on personal taste.

I almost feel like saying good luck, but because I haven’t run across anyone else that’s done this yet on GR’, I don’t even know if anyone will leave a link to their blurb. lol

I’ll pick which book by the end of the day on Friday, 3-29-13 and post you here.

Hey Carl,

Sounds cool. Kinda like The Voice for bookish types.
If you like literary fiction--Southern Gothic, I'm looking to receive an objective review of my novel, Raised by Hand, Lifted by the Tides--A Southern Child's Memoir.

You can find my blurb at the link below.

Look forward to seeing who you select,
Willett

Carl Lee (carllee2850) | 12 comments Hey back Willett,


My Book is "A Stone's Throw Away" by Carl Lee and I'd like to put the cover on my post. It's a wonderful idea.

So how'd you do it?

Seems like a bit of man-speak. But fortunately for me I've learned a little.

So, yes, you're welcome!

Very LOL - Think how it is for me to submit stories to literary journals only to get a notice saying: the deadline to submit has been extended.

Carl, you may need to repost in a couple of groups.

HZar Worth | 66 comments If anybody would like to review our book The Canarsie Flash, we have some print copies to distribute 'por-gratis', we spent 10 years writing it and are quite proud. Also our book is just 99 cents on amazon in kindle format or a free borrow with amazon prime. We're fairly new here, and are looking for new friends and others who share our enthusiasm for creative writing. Best wishes, Hunter and Osa

This is so wonderful. Thanks so much, Carl.
I feel like I won Little Miss Citrus. (You'll understand after you read my book :-)


All the best,
Willett
