Heyas Joyce! :) Great to see you here. No groups forming right at the moment but I am sure one will be soon, is how we roll. Keep checking back and I'll try to give you a shout when new rounds are forming.

Frank Parker | 82 comments Just realised I got my reading out of order - I've just finished Brin's terrific book for which I will post my review tomorrow. I shall now start reading my round 1 book: Dominique's "Purgatory is a Place Too". Sorry about that, Dominique.

Dominique Kyle (dominiquekyle) | 56 comments No worries - I couldn't get online to find out what order I was meant to be going in when I started my reading, so I'm out of sync too, I just came on to find out which one I'm supposed to have done!

Dominique Kyle (dominiquekyle) | 56 comments I have just finished reading Erin's enjoyable novel 'The Winners'.
I tend to write a shorter public facing review for Amazon, and a more personal one for my followers/friends on Goodreads, so please be aware that they are different.

Frank, please note you are unwise to state on Amazon that you received a free copy in exchange for a review. This is against Amazon's TOS as it implies payment for a review and could result in your review - and others - being taken down.

There is, however, nothing against the TOS in simply saying you were given a copy of the book.

E.M. Swift-Hook | 3487 comments Thanks to everyone who has submitted reviews - all are logged and up to date. And extra thanks to Erin for completing her commitment!

Frank, please also post your reviews to Amazon US and UK so I can mark you as done on that round. if you are not used to posting to an Amazon store that is not your own I would strongly suggest you read this post before you try to do so or you may hit issues.

And a reminder to those who have yet to turn in their first review that the first deadline is 22 Dec, so do work the read and the review into your pre-festive plans if you can - or let me know if you will be late.

Thanks all!
