[Bentley, Group Founder, Leader, Chief]

Paul Perry, this is your thread for 2017. I have included the link to the required format thread and an example. If you had a 2016 thread - it is archived - but you can still add books to it for the last few days of December.

Please follow the standard required format below - I hope you enjoy your reading in 2017. Here is also a link for assistance with the required guidelines:

Our Required Format:

JANUARY

1. by Winston S. Churchill
Finish date: January 2017
Genre: (whatever genre the book happens to be)
Rating: A
Review: You can add text from a review you have written but no links to any review elsewhere even goodreads. And that is about it. Just make sure to number consecutively and just add the months.

IMPORTANT - THE REVIEW SHOULD BE SHORT AND SWEET - THERE ARE NO LINKS OF ANY KIND IN THE BODY OF THE REVIEW ALLOWED. NONE. DO NOT REFER TO ANY OTHER BOOK IN YOUR BRIEF REVIEW. THE ONLY BOOK CITED IN YOUR REVIEW IS THE ONE YOU ARE REVIEWING - NO OTHERS. ALL LINKS TO OTHER THREADS OR REVIEWS ARE DELETED IMMEDIATELY - THERE WILL BE NO WARNING. WE CONSIDER THIS SELF PROMOTION AND IT IS NOT ALLOWED AND IS IN VIOLATION OF OUR RULES AND GUIDELINES.

1. edited by Jeff Seymour
Finish date: 2nd January 2017
Genre: Science Fiction anthology
Rating: C
Review: This is one of a themed series of anthologies of short work by independently published scfi authors, this one loosely of space travel. It is patchy, to put it mildly; about half the tales are good, none great, many ordinary and a couple positively painful. It didn't help that the first story was poor and the second awful - had it been a novel I would have chucked it at this point, but was glad I powered (or, rather, skimmed with glazed eyes) through as much of the rest was worth reading.

Paul - you are off to a good start but just some things to fix up quickly:

Just check the format in message one and use that as your guide.

Finished is Finish date:
Before the text of your review - Make sure to have Review:
And no blank lines between sections of posting aside from the blank line under the month.

Good job on the book citation and the month

Here is a sample.
