When that is done, that is all our Round One reviews sorted. Except still waiting on RD to post to Amazon UK site, please :)

Joannes Rhino (sethlestath) | 41 comments This is my review for Indifference:

https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

My review of Indifference could not be posted to Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk because Amazon says that the reviews must adhere to the guidelines. Kinda weird cause I've been doing just fine before this.

Thx for your review. Please help me to reconcile this review of my book with your book about a pedophile.

I think you will find if you replace the word some people regard as offensive, it will go through just fine. Amazon does not allow words like that in its reviews - Goodreads is less picky.

Hi Joannes, thank you for taking a look at my work. I know with Amazon, they are sticklers for language in reviews, so near the end of the review there is one word that is holding it up. Again, thanks for taking a look, I appreciate the honest review.

Barry (Kevin)

Hi E.M., is there any group I can join? I've been searching last night but all full. Hope you can recommend me one as I am pretty much available for a week.

I can't see any groups forming right now either Joannes, but if you have time to do some reading you can always check out the one-for-one thread here:

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

The nice thing about that thread is you can choose what you read from the list as well - so long as it is not someone you have already reviewed of course. Hope this helps.

That's my last book for this round. Thank you for the authors who allowed me to read and review their books and the opportunity to have others read my debut novel, A Deep Thing. I enjoyed this experience.

Emma Jaye | 3693 comments Admin mod message.
Note: This message is being posted in every active group.

it is not acceptable to contact reviewers after a review had been posted, except to say ‘thank you’. Asking a review to change a review is strictly prohibited. It is also not acceptable to contact a reviewee before you post your review.
This group is about getting honest reviews, and that includes the good, the bad and very occasionally, the ugly. Simply put, if you don’t want honest reviews, this isn’t the place for you.

That is you with your four ticks for the round! Thanks for taking part James, hope to see you in future bounds :)

Amazingly we have 2 people with 2 books outstanding, one who has yet to fully leave the starting blocks - and everyone else finished before the second round is even due in! Good going folks!

E.M. Swift-Hook | 3487 comments No worries, Marco. Is not so easy when the same person has the same book in two concurrent active groups. Being a sinner of the same stripe myself, I can see how it is a potential issue for our reviewers ;)

Why is is Marco so zealous about my book? Why is it posted in this group, he was not in this group nor was my book assigned to him twice?

Marco has apologised for placing the review in the wrong round, Garfield. The review is in its rightful place now =).

T.M. Raskin | 55 comments Hi everyone. Has anybody heard from RD Stones? He hasn't contacted me for a copy of my book. He also hasn't commented in this discussion board since the beginning. I haven't tried to contact him because it is awkward to ask if he is going to review my book.
Thanks for any input :)
