Bonnie Ferrante (bonnieferrante) Hi everyone,

I have a fantasy that has been edited several times and proofread by two other writers and is ready to be submitted to publishers. However, I'd really like it to be read by readers familiar with the young adult genre. Please let me know if you're interested.

Ciao,

Bonnie

Sue  Pilski (bubbasbookmama) I would be interested Bonnie. What format will you send? Mobi or pdf? Personally,mobi works better for me on my KINDLE FIRE. Or can you send me a complimentary copy in exchange for review in regular postal mail?

Let me know and then I will give you my info.

Bonnie Ferrante (bonnieferrante) Hi Sue,

I will format my DOC X file into a Moby and a PDF and send you both. That way you can use whichever suits you best. This is an unpublished book. It has been proofread and edited several times with feedback from other writers (not young adults).I'm looking for a different kind of feedback before I begin submitting to publishers. I'm not sure if the timeline is suitable to young adult readers the book begins when the protagonist is fourteen years old and ends when she is much older. I also have an ending which I dropped and am wondering if I should add back. I will included and ask you if you think it should be there. Thanks ever so much for doing this.

Ciao,

Bonnie
