Actually now it is free on Kindle so I will pick up the mobi version there. Thanks!

[K.T.]

I sent my book to Lennie.

I'd like to read Bruce's book—kidnapped. I'll pick it up on Amazon while it is free. :)

Thanks!
K.T.

[Lennie]

I got the book! :) It is now at the top of my TBR pile! :D

[Attila]

Awesome, thank you both for letting me know. I also marked K.T. as reading Bruce's book, and updated the pool accordingly.

[Scott]

I'll read The Basics Of Agile and Lean. I can buy it since it's only 99cents and that will verify the review.

[Bruce]

That book is not available as a mobi. I can only send a Kindle Gift, if you can accept VAT-free gifts. Please confirm if you can, and if this is your amazon address where I can send the book to. Thank you.

[Bruce]

yes, I can accept VAT free. Thanks!

What is considered the 'normal' time wait time to receive a book to review?

[Attila]

Roy wrote: "What is considered the 'normal' time wait time to receive a book to review?"

People can be on vacation or away doing other things. I would say a week is okay. If you would like to choose another book, feel free to do so, and we'll return this to the pool.

[K.T.]

Hey Roy!

Sorry you caught me during a busy time. What version would you like sent to your email? Mobi or ePub? I’ll try to send you your preferred version today if I can, otherwise first thing tomorrow.

Thanks,
K.T.

[Roy]

No worries K.T.

Mobi works for me! Thanks!

[Jaela]

Good Afternoon
I would like to read Mr. Blakely's Tipsy Golf Tips: A Guide to Improving Your Golf Score.
I don't actually have a golf score, but I am looking for humor, and this seems to fit that bill.
Kindle format, please.
Thank you.

Please provide an email address where the author can send the book.

[Jaela]

My apologies. You have my email address, so I didn't think to provide it. But here it is:
Jaela-Lynndon@On5Wheels.com

Thanks for your indulgence as I learn to navigate this site.

[Attila]

Thank you, Jaela. I sent a message to Roy, and marked you as reading his book. Please let me know when you receive it, so I can keep track of the review. Thank you.

PS: I didn't have your email address. We're all just users of this site, fellow authors, like yourself.

[Jaela]

Okay, I THOUGHT I was learning how to use this site! This is Jaela Lynndon. You sent me an email, asking me to let you know when I received the file for a book I chose to review, and I tried to reply, but it bounced because the message you sent came from a no-reply address.
So now I'm posting here, even though this isn't the "right" place. Probably.
I don't know how else to contact you.

Here's what I sent (no, TRIED to send):
I'm learning! You'd sent me emails, so I thought you had the address. I guess I understand that you're using the GoodReads site, not a direct approach, since you're a moderator.
I got the .pdf today. I'll be reading and reviewing asap.
Thanks for your indulgence as I learn what the "heck" I'm doing here.
Jaela

Next time you send me an email, would you please tell me the CORRECT way to reply? Thanks. I'm not trying to be obstinate, I'm just (apparently!) not learning as fast as I thought I was...

[Attila]

*I* didn't send that email, I posted in this thread—see my message above yours. Goodreads sent you the notification of the new post in this thread.

You need to post your replies on Goodreads, not by email.

When you have read the chosen book, and written the review, you need to post the review on the book's Goodreads page, and the book's amazon.com page. When both reviews are up (On Goodreads, it will appear immediately, on amazon.com, it will appear after approval by Amazon staff), you then need to post the direct link to both of the reviews in the following thread: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

[Roy]

Jaela,

I read your review(s) of 'Mr. Blakely's Tipsy Golf Tips' on Amazon and Goodreads. Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed reading it...
