message 51: by Emma (new)

Emma Jaye | 3693 comments This does produce something of a dilemma, as Anthony cannot review you.

As he failed to declare any review clashes, which is a requirement of signing up, (and there are a few in this round) I will be removing him from this round and looking for another member.
Anthony you are more than welcome to join another round, as long as you declare your clashes, I don't have the time to check everyone's reviews on every book. I'm setting up 8 groups at the moment, that's 80 authors, some of whom have 20 books and have done hundreds of reviews.

However, the rest of you, please continue with the order as posted.
Those of you due to review, or be reviewed by Anthony will go ahead with the new member.

Robert Jones (rdjones) | 18 comments Hi Emma,

This is my first time in a review group. What do we do about the missing person... the "?". Do we just skip that review?

Thanks,

Robbie


message 54: by Melinda (new)

Melinda Brasher | 81 comments Is there going to be someone in the question mark slot (number 7)?


message 55: by Noorilhuda (new)

Noorilhuda | 522 comments @Robert, Melinda, yes, there will be another member. Kindly just move on with the other reviews. You can read any book in whichever order you like - as long as all reviews are done by the deadline.

Hopefully, the 'no.7?' will be filled up in next few days. Don't worry.

Melinda Brasher | 81 comments Noorilhuda, thanks. Just wasn't sure about it.

P. Zoro (pzoro) | 106 comments Hi Noorilhuda

Have you found number 7 yet? I have reviewed a book by Chrys Cymry - not the one in this round. I don't think anybody else has reviewed me but they can confirm.

My book: The Sleeping Pool
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Thank you.


message 58: by Emma (new)

Emma Jaye | 3693 comments Thanks for the offer P., but I've got a new member popping along from another forming round.
I'd have to re-arrange the list to fit you in, as the ? spot has to be reviews by Chrys. As this round is going, it would be a bit of a headache for everyone.

Oh ya. You're right as usual Emma. Let me look for another round. Thanks.

E.M. Swift-Hook | 3487 comments If it all goes horribly wrong - I am still very happy to snag that last spot. I do 'fit' but would be better to see it going to someone new here :)


message 61: by Emma (new)

Emma Jaye | 3693 comments I've offered it to another lady, but if she doesn't show up here in the next 24hrs. I'll add you in, E.M.

Chrys Cymri | 441 comments Mod
Yes, she would 'fit' as I have reviewed her before (and she has another book I could read).

A.K. Smith (aksmithbooks) | 11 comments Hi Emma, just wanted to clarify which group I am in. It doesnt matter to me. I have no conflicts with either group. Thanks


message 64: by Emma (new)

Emma Jaye | 3693 comments In that case, stay in the 18+ and I'll add someone else to this one.
Thanks for being so flexible.

No need for apologies, Chrys, it's all in the spirit of writing the best books we can, and honest reviews are the best.

Robert Jones (rdjones) | 18 comments Hey guys,

I am having trouble getting a copy of Bipolar 1 Disorder: How to Survive and Thrive from Molly McHugh.

Does anyone have a copy they can send through?

I have to admit it was so cheap I bought it - but, of course, that may not be an option available to you. Which reminds me, when you can, please PM me as I do need a copy of your book Robert :)


message 76: by Robert (new)

Robert Jones (rdjones) | 18 comments I may have to do the same I think.

I just sent you a message as well E.M.


message 77: by Anthony (new)

Anthony Stancomb (anthonystancombgmailcom) | 48 comments I seem to have failed to get myself included in the group.
So sadly i won't be able to review Andrew's, AA's, DG's and Molly's books as i had hoped to.
Never mind. I'l wait for another group.

Happy Christmas everyone.

Robert, it's Molly's responsibility to send you a version of her book that you can read - so kindly move on with other reading assignments instead of waiting for her. There could be a million reasons why she may not have been able to do so as yet, so kindly don't worry.

Anthony, it's always a bummer! I've been there too! But the good thing is that the rounds open up pretty regularly so do look up once the holidays are over. Merry Christmas to you too.

Robert Jones (rdjones) | 18 comments Thanks E.M.,

I am glad you enjoyed the book and your review was very flattering! I am glad yo enjoyed the book.

I am a bit of newby to publishing, your review exists but when I go to the books Amazon page it doesnt show up, is there a waiting period for the review to be accepted or something?

Thanks,

Robbie

I have absolutely no idea what is going on there - the review, as you say, exists but seems not to be showing up on the book page itself. Most odd, never had that issue before and all my other reviews for this round are showing up fine so is clearly not an issue that I'm posting from the UK.

I'm guess it is an odd glitch. I could try removing it and reposting, but before I do I'll just check if anyone else has this kind of issue.

I had that happen with one of the reviews I wrote. After a couple of days, it suddenly did appear. I suggest you give it 48 hours.

Thanks for that Chrys - good to know the same strange phenomenon has occurred to others! I have had reviews simply not show up for a few days, but never one that shows up on its own page, just not on the book's page.

It was posted on the 28 Dec - but maybe with the New Year and all.... I'll give it a few more days.


message 91: by Robert (new)

Robert Jones (rdjones) | 18 comments I wouldnt stress, I will give it another day or two and if it doesnt pop up on its own I will contact Amazon and I'm sure they will fix it.

Thanks guys!

As always, of course, YMMV. This concludes my Round 1, onto Round 2.
