Book Review Pool #17 - CLOSED
I'd be happy to review: Last 90 Days, Book 1 of the Archie TrilogyAuthor: Gail Matelson.
Any of the available formats work for me. Please note: I review as a fellow writer, not a critic or professional reviewer. I use a kindly honest blue pencil.

I looked forward to diving in!

Thanks, James and Valacity! I know we authors are supposed to be tough-skinned, but in truth it's quite painful to be dismissed so thoroughly in a public support group.
What was that quote? It takes 10 positive reviews to for an author to recover from a negative one? lol.
Thanks again, you made me feel a little better :)

Sue, I apologize - it is better to send messages like this privately. I'll ask her to PM me in the future.
Love that quote! I hope you saw that Stacey gave your book a good review. :)

Hi Greg,
That book was already selected for review, but there are quite a few others that are still listed as available. Are there any available books you'd be interested in?
Thanks!

Thanks, Suzanne"
Thanks, Suzanne! I will send the author a message. :)
Thanks Danielle. The truly odd thing is that Pam never requested a copy to review, and I never sent it to her!I saw Stacey's awesome review. Thank you so much, Stacey!

Maybe she downloaded a copy on the day that you had it up for free? I didn't know she was reviewing it either!
I would like to read Finding Destiny, if it is still available. (I know, the author is reading my work. I don't consider this a trade, as the book itself was appealing and has no bearing on whether the author gives me any sort of review. I am always sincere when I give my reviews.)

so Finding Destiny would of then been put in the pool. Pass me your email address and I'll send you the mobi...
Then I'll let Daneielle know it's taken as I came across your comment if you like.
Kind regards.
Katrina.
Hi, Sue! Since The Butterfly Code is available for review again, I'll read it :-)Will send you a message.
I would like to read and review A reason by Stacey Dunn. Either a Pdf or Mobi copy would be fine.

Carla, this book was already chosen (by Sacha in the post right above yours)! Is there another book that's still available that you would be interested in? Please let me know. Thanks!

So sorry! I thought it said available for review! I'm already way into the book, so I'll review it for Valicity anyhow. I would like to review then: .How_Abraham_Lincoln_Used_Stories_to_Touch_Hearts__Minds__and_Funny_Bones by Terry Sprouse. Thanks! (PDF please -- witchescastle@comcast.net).
I want to review Last 90 Days, but I have one question -- are we doing Goodreads reviews only? Or we can request Amazon reviews?
I would like to read and review The Ritual of the Four. Any format (Mobi, ePub or PDF) is fine for me.Thank you!

Hi Carla,
That book's not available either! But it's okay - since you already started Valicity's book, you can review that one for the pool. It did say it was still available (I didn't have a chance to check in and update the pool) so I'll make an exception.
Thanks!

That book was already chosen, but I'll make another exception (as I just did for someone else) so Gail can send you the book. And yes, everyone is supposed to post reviews on GR and Amazon. :)
Thanks!
Danielle
From here on out, I am going to be more strict about people picking books that have already been chosen. We have too many books that are still waiting on reviews - this is why I need to be less lenient about it!! I will be crossing out books that have already been picked so hopefully that will help alleviate any confusion. My only other issue is that I can't always update the pool right away so make sure you check at least a few posts above yours to make sure no one else already picked it. Thanks, everyone!!!!!
Sorry, I'm not trying to be a B! I'm just trying to make it fair for everyone. When someone reviews a book, they should be getting a review in return. That's the whole point of this group. :)

Yes, I got it! Thanks. I'll start reading it right now and post a review as soon as I'm done.

Danielle,
I'm sorry again! I think I must be looking at the wrong place, so thank you for crossing out books that are no longer available. I'm truly not trying to be a pain! Thanks for letting me finish Cross Academy. I'll make sure I don't mess up again if I choose another book :)
