Review circle - closed

[Rhian]

ATTENTION ALL:

I am shutting this review group down as a number of issues have emerged (non-adherence to guidelines and late declarations of conflicts of interest among other things).

Those of you who have posted reviews (not of my work) please PM me and send me a link so I can make sure there is some reciprocity.

Those of you who have yet to review, please do not continue.

Thanks.

[Erin]

Is the word count set in stlone? My novella is 36K words. If not can I submit Blaque Beauty and the Billionaire

Hi Erin, I suspect we are already in a review circle elsewhere - but I can try to make sure there are no clashes.
I'll just go and see if you are on my list.

[Rhian]

I've checked and I think you are reviewing me in another group.

[Ray]

Hi, I have a Novella. It is a thriller. It is about 130 pages long and would be a quick read. It is not a children's book though. I am a book reviewer for Reader's Favorite and I give quality reviews of about 250 words. I have a little bit of a special request though. My book can be read for free here on Inkett.com : https://www.inkitt.com/stories/thrill...
I would like the reviews to be posted there. I will post your reviews on my blog, on goodreads, and at about 30 review sites I belong to on facebook. I would like to join this circle. I think I would be helpful to other authors who need reviews. You can see some of my reviews here on Goodreads.

[Rhian]

Hi Ray, I've added you to the list.

[Ray]

Thanks!

[Garfield]

[Rhian]

Ah, poetry. That might be interesting. I'll add you in. :)

I'd like to join with humor. Special Agent Mauve: Origins

I've already reviewed Erin's story and I've reviewed Garfield, just not that work

[Rhian]

NB: will update the list when I can get on PC; can't do it from the phone.

[Garfield]

I read Blaque beauty already.

I hope it's OK for me to post that anyone who wants a book reviewed by me can just send me the pdf or link. I read a lot and I like to keep it simple. If you send it to me I will do it. If I have to search somewhere for it, I might get distracted.

Hi Ray
Would you like to read and review short stories?

Pls pm me ur mail id.

[Rhian]

Ray, please don't do that on this thread just yet - I'm trying to avoid clashes and it will be extremely difficult to do that if people are doing straight review exchanges or whatnot via private message.

Of course if you want to read more than your fair share then that's fine, but please bear in mind that Amazon can detect review exchanges and may take them down.

Hi Prakash,

As this is a review circle, it's only fair you review someone else's work.

My review of Chinese Formula

[Prakash]

Hi Rhian
Pls check my reviews of Ship Rats on smashwords and goodreads.

Reviewing China Formula very shortly.

[Rhian]

Could everyone check the update above, please.

[Garfield]

I can understand ...one "possible" reason is word count, i really was looking forward to reading some short kids stories to make me feel like ten again...the 2 i got word counts were way over 30K.
