I'm here to put out my novel out there for reviews. But I'm also here to read and discuss what my contemporaries are writing by doing some reviewing as well. It's one big community, right? I'd like to do my part to being a productive member of our writing world.
I have a few reviews already out there on Goodreads, ARCs I received from Our Write Side. I also have a few short stories (currently unpublished) and one novel.
I write and read in every genre. My novel is high fantasy. I'm editing a pop satire short story and currently writing a science fiction piece my nephew requested so he'd had something to read while in chemo.
That's pretty much it for me. I look forward to reading a ton, talking with y'all a lot, and dancing. There's always a lot of dancing.
Cheers!

wow, the ending of your last but one paragraph made me wanna smile and cry at the same time... welcome and cheers!
Patricia.

Thanks for the welcome!

I live in the NE of England and am brand new to the indie author experience having uploaded my first book, The Fated Sky, to Amazon in May and am presently waiting for the second volume to propagate from Amazon to Goodreads. Does that take a long time normally?
Hoping I can find friends, good reads to review - and garner a few reviews as well.

Nice to meet you E.M.
I hope to get to know you as well :)

I am looking forward to interacting with all of you.

If I can get a word in, I am the author, Fred lives in my head but has become more than real, and I just love seeing kids "click" when they read a book or have a book read to them. I live in Cape Town and Fred could be on any planet anywhere in the universe. I, OK we, would love to connect and would love to also review a book or two.

My name is Greg and I'm the author of two books, "The God Secret" and "The Jesus Phenomenon" that will be promoted soon on Goodreads with two giveaways.
I'd like to know if any of you would be interested in reading and reviewing one of my books before the start of the giveaway.
Don't hesitate to contact me for more information.
Thanks,
Greg

I write books for the same age and would love to read and review yours.

Merrett's Gift

I have read the rules and I will be asking for a review in the appropriate thread, but I did want to explain my situation. Here is the synopsis for anyone interested.
"When six “criminally gifted” teens are caught misapplying their talents, each is given an offer they can’t refuse: to train at a secret school and put their skills to work for their country, or face the most severe consequences for their crimes.
The kids arrive at the Brockmann School of Excellence full of resentment and suspicion, and their first impressions of the place only confirm their fears. Then they meet Mr. Merrett—the teacher who changes everything. Suddenly life is a lot more interesting! Challenged in ways they never imagined, the teens slowly begin to meld into a team capable of more than even their trainers realize.
A fun, suspenseful roller-coaster ride of a story, Merrett’s Gift follows the adventures of a group of teens hell-bent on living life on their own terms, and the mysterious teacher who makes it possible. But who is he, really? And why is he so secretive about his past?
Class is in session! Enjoy—but keep an eye on your valuables. And your passcodes. And your car . . ."
I really want to connect with readers and writers and this group looks amazing. I have a lot to learn and read! Thanks for having me. Your fan,
Ian

Thanks Alex, I will! I love writing books, not a big fan of editing them, and everything that comes after has just been a whirlwind for me. I really do appreciate the suggestion.
Thanks again,
Ian

I write poems, songs, short stories, and novels. When I'm not writing, then I'm working on music, reading, or spending some special quality time with my family and friends.
My recent novel, "The Sign of Change", is a Historical Fiction Romance. It is one of my favourite genres because I believe that there is nothing more strange or more mysterious than history.
On my blog, I offer background information on my work:

Hope to see you there,
H.

I'll check it out. Thank you! (There's so much i have to learn)

Hey, folks! I'd love reviews for my urban fantasy novel, Order of Vespers. I can either gift you a Kindle version or send you a print copy. I prefer Kindle, but am happy to do whatever works for you. Please respond to this post or email me at orderofvespers@gmail.com .

Description:
God and the Devil have abandoned Earth.
Chaos has ensued.
Il Separatio, the Entity of Neutrality, tries to restore the peace by staging an intervention through its children, the Order of Vespers, but he’ll need one with extraordinary powers to make good on his promise.
Jasper Andrews is on the run. She’s the prime suspect in the mysterious murders of her family members, but the police aren’t the only one she’s running from – the actual killers are after her too. But none have any knowledge into how deadly their mission is; Jasper possesses the ability to destroy them and everyone around them, and if she doesn’t regain control of powers, that just may be what will happen.
The Order has taken notice of Jasper’s unique powers and brings her into their fold, but with already so much at stake for her, will she be able to regain control? Forced to choose between revenge, the integrity of the Order, and humanity itself, which way will Jasper turn?

Hello everyone,
I’m a new Indie author who just published Conflicts of the Universe (Earth at War). I served over 12 years in two different U.S. military branches. Five of those years I was a Navy rescue swimmer flying on the HH-1N (Huey). I still work full time and write on my off time. I picked up writing while writing many papers in college. I finished my BA in Homeland Security from AMU back in 2012. I enjoyed writing so I decided to write this book. I posted information about my book in the open to reviewers tab. This is my first book so be gentle. I’m open to any insists to help improve my work though. And welcome all who want to review it.
B. M. Gomez

I started writing when I was in high school, but I didn't dabble in poetry until I was in college. I write poetry as a cathartic experience and express emotions about love, heartbreak, jealousy, anxiety, etc. in a way that is meaningful to anyone who reads it.
I hope to share my work with you all, as I am looking for reviewers. My book just launched in July.

I'm fairly new to goodreads, so at the risk of looking desperate, I need friends and support!
I've written two books in my contemporary underworld series, Nechronicles, (check out the latest one here https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...) with another one on the way.
I'm also up for reading pretty much anything. Feel free to get in contact with your book for a review - always willing to do a fair exchange (insert winky face).
I look forward to meeting you soon.

I am fairly new to goodreads. I am an author and bibliophile.
I recently wrote a YA paranormal romance and the first book in a trilogy. Fell free to check it out. Think twilight/vampire diaries except with angels.

Call me Jessi. My first book is

I just finished my second novel set in ancient Egypt and am in the editing stages. I'll be looking for some beta readers soon.
I'm a huge reader too. I review for the Historical Novel Society and love historical fiction. Of course, I'm also a Star Wars & Star Trek nerd, so I read a lot of science fiction too. Fantasy is also fantastic.
Looking forward to conversing and sharing recommendations. Feel free to check out my author page for books I love and for my blog posts: J. Lynn Else

To be honest, I am quite lost in this whole New world, so any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
I am looking forward to making new friends and finding new books.
Thanks, y'all.

My name is Chris and I am the author of the book "Seeking Justice", a "Stunning Crime Novel that Takes a Man to the Pits of Hell and Back".
I'd like to find someone available to read and review my book.

Good morning Chris, good to meet you. Your book sounds interesting and I'd like to read and review it for you. I'll PM you with my details later today.

The Dead Camp series is a paranormal romance, set during the Second World War. The saga takes place over various moments in history, including Victorian London and The Crucifixion, and is a complex story that weaves together each book. I am currently waiting for my publisher to release Dead Camp 3 as I now start to write the fourth book. There will be five in total, ending with the downfall of Hitler.
Be warned though, the books do get a bit graphic, both from a violent perspective and sex. The
main characters are also all gay.
Thank you for reading this and I look forward to meeting you xxxx

I work as a project manager in the IT sector, but in my free time (read very early morning and late nights) I enjoy spending time writing. Being also a father of a lovely daughter (with a second one on her way) you can imagine how difficult it has been to write my very first novel (Italian edt, Il Sicomoro di Sofia).
The English edition is out now (Sofia's Sycamore) and I am very much looking forward to find some people interested in reading it and, possibly, reviewing it.
So for now, I just say HI. I'll tell you more in the appropriate section.
Nice meeting you all


I'm super new to goodreads - and pretty new to reviewing but I think it's going well so far!
Please feel free to visit me on my blog: thestorycollectorblog.wordpress.com :)

The second edition came out with extended content and new cover on august 5, 2016 and I would love to find people interested in reading it and reviewing it. It has a few reviews, but it needs tons more.
It is great that I found this group.
I also do reviews on my blog, Goodreads, Amazon, Barnes & Noble as well as Audible.

I would love to review any books in the personal development genre. Especially relating to business, finance, and marketing.
If you would like to learn how to be and feel wealthy. Or if you just want to learn more about investing, I would love it if you reviewed my book. I have it available for free 9/3/16 - 9/4/16 at the following address.

I'm Brian Flint. I'm on this group as both a reviewer and an author. I have two books self-published on Amazon (Just published the second one). I will be putting the info on those in the appropriate place.
I'm a social studies teacher, have my BA and MA in History, was in the USMC Reserves, love to hike, camp, fish, shoot, and anything else the outdoors can offer for cheap.
I haven't done a lot of reviews but feel it is helpful to the author and to me as an author.
I hope to be able to help as many as you as possible and hope to get a little help in return.
Thanks.
