Author's Request For Reviews
I will have to try them. For now I will be only posting reviews on Goodreads until Amazon lets me post my reviews.
I've recently started posting on Bookbub too. I just copy and paste the review. It's not as difficult to use as I thought it would be. I find it impossible to use if I'm looking for a book to purchase but the review side is very easy.I think I'm going to have to start thinking about Barnes and Noble too. I tried out the nook, didn't like it and switched to kindle. I'm not even sure they let you post reviews. I figure if I post a review one place I might as well post it everywhere I can.
I like AuthorsXP a lot. You have direct contact with the authors. If I find a problem I can send an email to them so it can be edited.
I want to list my book "Love Notes" for a possible review here. This is a book of micropoetry and thoughts.If someone is interested, I can send a .mobi or ePub copy
Book: Love Notes
Genre: Poetry
Hey everyone, thanks so much to Beth & Aly who wrote great reviews of my collection of short stories earlier this year. I have just published my first novel, a YA dystopian book called 'Eve of Eridu.'
If you are into this genre (think Divergent, The Giver, The Hunger Games etc) and you are interested in a review copy please send me a PM :)
Here's the blurb:
In a world where emotions are forbidden, what happens when you start to feel?
The harvest separates the worthy from the unworthy. Those who pass are destined to continue the human race, and the unworthy are culled.
For years, Eve has been the poster girl for emotional control. But ever since her brother was culled, Eve is finding it difficult to keep the monitor on her wrist an acceptable blue.
The next harvest ceremony is approaching and Eve will do whatever it takes to avoid the same fate as her brother.
Gripping and intriguing, Eve of Eridu explores the lengths that humans will go to in their quest for survival.
Thanks in advance!

Hi all! I've just brought out the second book in my Steampunk series based in World War 2 - The Russian Resistance - and I'd appreciate some feedback from anyone who's interested! And if you want the first one, er, first, then just let me know!
After their resounding victory in the skies of Southern England it seems that the Royal Aviation Corps finally has a chance to lick its wounds and rebuild. However, the Prussian Empire’s war machine is unrelenting and, having been turned back from the shores of the British Isles, it turns its hungry gaze eastwards towards Russia.
Unwilling to let another friendly power be swallowed by the tide of tyranny that has swept its way mercilessly across Europe, King George VI sends aid in the form of his most effective weapon - Misfit Squadron.

Hi everyone,My name is Stjepan Varesevac Cobets and I'm looking for a book review. Two months ago I published my new book on Amazon. The book is a SciFi romance set in the future, and the action is placed on Earth after a natural apocalypse. If someone wants to read my book I have a PDF and Mobi format. Please feel free to contact me on my author site.
With respect,
Stjepan
Synopsis
The year is 2197. More than one hundred years have passed since the natural destruction of the Earth's surface. The surviving inhabitants are now living in Heavenly Cities high above the clouds with no intention of ever descending back to the unstable surface again.
Helen is a lawyer who lives in one of those cities. Her life is almost perfect, but very soon she is going to find out that it was all just an illusion as her dreams scatter like leaves in the wind and the only thing left for her to return to will be her hometown.
But on her way home, an almost fatal car accident on the heavenly highway turns her life in a drastically new direction. Helen finds herself crashing down onto the earth's destructive surface and landing in a forest world that is completely alien to her with a million and one questions and very few answers.
The number 1 question being - is it really true what the government told her and the surviving population that no one ever survived down on Earth? Well, what if the truth was the complete opposite? What if there really were survivors?
Hi reviewers. I have something a bit different in Australian Non fiction and seeking interested reviewers. My book is called Merigal Dingoes. Merigal Dingoes is collection of heart-warming Dingo (and one New Guinea Singing Dog) stories introducing readers to the true nature of Australia’s most maligned native animal, the Dingo.
The collection is based on the records of Berenice Walters, known as the Dingo Lady, and the my own experience. It would be a valuable addition for anyone wanting to learn more about the Dingo.
Berenice Walters dedicated her adult life to studying the dingo. She campaigned to improve its image and acknowledgement of its important environmental role as an apex predator. The stories demonstrate how her dingoes taught her about their personality, behaviour and antics with a large dose of reciprocated love, and humour.
It contains over 30 stories and 100 photos it will warm the heart of any animal lover.
The book is 158 pages and light reading.
I can provide mobi or PDF versions
My latest book I used Voracious for. I had thirty interested responses. I am disappointed by the fact that only five of the thirty that received the book through book funnel have downloaded the book. I am still struggling with getting reliable reviews. Does anyone have any suggestion? I write romance and my book An Unexpected Kiss has been out a month now and only one review.
Isabella I'm trying to figure out how to recruit dedicated reviewers who can and will review.I have so many books in my TBR and reviewed pile it's ridiculous. If I wasn't so backlogged I'd offer but I don't know when I'd get to your book.
Everything I read now is for review. I buy books I want to read and never get to read them. It's begun to feel lile a job rather than reading for pleasure. I have no idea what to tell you.
I am also backed up on doing reviews. I am trying to catch up and hopefully will be caught up by the end of Next month and be able to do more book reviews.
Sometimes reviewers opt not to review a book if it's bad. I've done that. I'd rather give the author a break and not review than to leave a bad review.
I agree we need more dedicated reviewers and I encourage readers as often as possible to post reviews of their reading (not just readers of my own books) I was amazed when I listed on IndieView how quickly my reading list jumped to three months worth. As I am working on a new book I have less time for reading at all let alone writing reviews but I look forward to reviewing again once that is completed.
Like Patricia, I buy books I want to read but never get around to them. I think as reviewers we should reward ourselves once every x number of books by reading one of our own choice. Yes, it does feel like an unpaid job at times.
I would love it if you would review my book Traveling Light: A Self Reflective Journey Nisha Paul. It is a quick motivational read. I am looking to reach more readers and the community on Goodreads has a supportive group of readers. Please either send me a message on my Goodreads profile or email me at travelinglight.thebook@gmail.com Thanks a lot!
Patricia wrote: "If you are an author and would like your book reviewed by our team please post it here."Thanks for this opportunity Patricia. I just recently published my book and am always looking for ways to reach new readers. I would love it if I get a few reviewers to read and review my book. Please send me an email at travelinglight.thebook@gmail.com if you are interested in reading an ebook copy of my book Traveling Light: A Self Reflective Journey - Nisha Paul. It is a quick motivational read on life lessons and self-awareness. I could send them an iTunes code that can be used to download the book. They would need an Apple reader to view the book. Look forward to spreading the love. Thanks! Nisha

Hello,
I would like to ask for critical reads on my book 'Lepers', please; it is available on KU or I can provide a pdf/mobi copy for anyone interested.
Sci-fi dystopian, a tale of immortality, immorality, madness, love, power and betrayal.
Blurb: Not long after humanity abandoned the Earth, the first Life Extension Project was born.
The L.E.P gifted its subjects with strength, vitality and youth, though only for those happy few deemed essential to mankind’s survival.
The masses still struggle, still strive, trying to outrun death.
Now, only a handful of immortals remain, in a galaxy where their very existence has become a sin.
David remembers the time before the Exodus, before the fleet, before the L.E.P that was born from the accident of his own immortality.
For nearly two thousand years he has travelled the stars, learning, helping where he could, avoiding the eyes of the church, until a passenger boards his ship, a young woman filled with hope.
Her presence will change the future forever.

Hello everyoneI'm looking for reviews for my erotic horror/ dark fantasy book, The Erotic Muse.
Blurb: 'The Erotic Muse' is the story of K, a young porn-addicted college-dropout who shies away from relationships and harbors dreams of becoming a writer. Full of anguish, he is given to self-abuse. One evening, while masturbating to his favorite erotic muse, Fanny Leone, sprawled on the cover of an underground porn magazine, K finds himself magically transported to a parallel world where all sexual desires and perversions are fulfilled, although with the price that he might remain trapped in this unique pleasure-hell all his life – unless he can find a way out. This 'way out' is his redemption, a journey studded with heart-stopping adventure, life-threatening danger, nerve-wracking horror, and a brush with true love.
I can provide a free copy in mobi (Kindle), epub and pdf formats.
Interested readers may contact me here or my email: rajeev.writer1985@gmail.com

JOHN HUNT PUBLISHING – ROUNDFIRE – announces a new title
JUSTICE GONE
N. Lombardi Jr.
314 pages
We are delighted to offer an advanced reader's review copy of Justice Gone, a mystery/legal thriller which publishes February 22, 2019, a book that we expect to have strong appeal to commercial fiction readers, as it touches upon many topical, controversial issues in today's society as well as being a thrilling and engaging read. The story encapsulates current social issues: police brutality, homelessness, the plight of returning war veterans, the frenzy of the press, and the mechanics of the US judicial system.
"When a homeless war veteran is beaten to death by the police, stormy protests ensue, engulfing a small New Jersey town. Soon after, three cops are gunned down.
A multi-state manhunt is underway for a cop killer on the loose. And Dr. Tessa Thorpe, a veteran's counselor, is caught up in the chase.
Donald Darfield, an African-American Iraqi war vet, war-time buddy of the beaten man, and one of Tessa's patients, is holed up in a mountain cabin. Tessa, acting on instinct, sets off to find him, but the swarm of law enforcement officers gets there first, leading to Darfield's dramatic capture.
Now, the only people separating him from the lethal needle of state justice are Tessa and ageing blind lawyer, Nathaniel Bodine. Can they untangle the web tightening around Darfield in time, when the press and the justice system are baying for revenge?”
Justice Gone is the first in a series of psychological thrillers involving Dr. Tessa Thorpe.

winter flower
Charles Sheehan-Miles
Edited by Lori Sabin
Genre: Literary/Contemporary Fiction
Release Date: June 4, 2019 print, June 11, 2019 ebook
Audible.com release scheduled late July 2019. Narrated by Erika Cockerham
Cincinnatus Press
430 pages / 167,000 words
https://sheehanmiles.com/winter-flower
From the bestselling author of Just Remember to Breathe and The Last Hour, a shocking and poignant story of a family on the brink of destruction and the transformational events that could bring them back together—or tear them apart.
Every day, Cole Roberts reminds himself that life wasn’t always this bleak. He was once passionately in love with Erin. Sam used to be an artistic and lively kid. They hadn’t always lived in a shabby two-room house in rural Alabama, where he runs a mediocre restaurant in the middle of nowhere.
That was before Brenna disappeared. It was before Cole lost his job and they lost their home.
Every day it gets worse. Erin drinks wine out of the bottle and spends her days with a tormented expression, searching the web for signs of their daughter. Sam hides in his room and rarely speaks. And Cole works himself to a stupor for a paycheck a fraction of the size of his old salary.
Until one day a phone call changes everything.
winter flower is at once a tragic tale of the disappearance of a child; struggling with gender identity; of the dark world of sex-trafficking and the transformation and healing of a family. Sheehan-Miles’s longest novel delves into the depths of family life—and how, sometimes, we can heal and find restoration.
Hi everyone,I recently published my second novel, Last Day In Hell, and I would love to give out some digital copies in exchange for honest reviews. Here is the synopsis:
A young woman wakes in a strange place without her memory, without her name, unable to recognize the sound of her own voice. All she knows, the one truth she can't deny, is that she is dead, and this place, this world filled with inexplicable terrors, is in fact Hell.
A man named Jack and his group of lost souls struggle to collect the few innocent strays trapped in this dimension, to ferry them off to another realm, to a better place. When Jack frees this young woman from her cell, from the prison she finds herself in, she is placed in a cycle of struggle and pain from which there is no escape.
Lost in a Hell created by a vengeful angel, Jack's group fight their way to the one safe spot in this world, their one last refuge, each of them brought to this place to repay an unknown debt, each member as clueless about their past as the young woman who quickly finds a place amongst their ranks.
Jack himself is pursued by a demon, a succubus, who claims to love him, a woman who may well know him better than he could ever know himself. Her desire for him will lead Jack and his group down a new path, a dark path, that will change everything they have ever known.
A story of redemption and sacrifice, filled throughout with action and suspense, Last Day In Hell may leave you in tears as its final question is answered.
I have copies available in .mobi (kindle format) and PDF, and I can also supply free coupons for Smashwords.
Either message me here at Goodreads or e-mail me at jmp2y@hotmail.com if you're interested and let me know your preferred format. Thanks in advance, and I look forward to your replies. -Jay Phillips

I stepped out of bed this morning without delay excited for a Monday morning; this has been my routine since the second day of school Senior year, unlike the way I felt the day before. The first day of school, I walked in, tired of football, girl drama, and worrying about what the future holds. It was on the tip of my tongue to ask if I can move up my date to join the military if I
graduate in December instead of waiting until May, but promises made amid the heartbreak, control the choices I have now.
I walked the hall, debating my options on the way to my elective, Journalism, which I chose as an easy option. I continued my
path, a daunting task when surrounded by cheerleaders fighting for my attention. Clueless, them, not me, a talent I developed freshmen year when I started playing varsity football while fighting off the senior girls. I learned how to seem interested. I have perfected the technique; I am a master at it. I am not a jerk or even a bad guy. I have not found a girl in this school that holds my interest; it is as simple as that. Until that day first period Journalism, breaking away from the group as the sound of the second bell rings, I made my excuses, walking into the classroom as if I owned the place. Another technique I had developed which hid my insecurity in this life, to all outside appearances, I am calm and confident when I am in all reality nervous as a kindergartner on his first day of school. I plastered my best one, a smirking
smile working for me as I heard the collective gasps from the girls as I strolled into the room that is until I listened to her voice, rendering me speechless.
"Good morning Mr. Raines. How nice of you
to join us."
My eyes met hers, halting me in my tracks. With a pounding heart, dry mouth, and I was utterly silent. It could not have been
but a second before I heard a clearing of a throat, witnessing as she pointed towards an empty seat, but to me, it felt as if hours had passed where I was lost, caught up in the spell. I found my voice.
"Good morning. Miss?"
"Mrs. Stephenson."
My heart did this strange flip-flop while my gut
churned, causing some crazy sea-sickness feeling as I am rocking in powerful waves. I take my seat supporting my jaw in my hand while my eyes roamed over every single inch of her body while she spoke. Her shiny brown hair reminding me of the warm chocolate sauce, my mom used to make and her eyes I am guessing
hazel similar to mine, but when the light hits them from the large window, I swear they are green. She is tall but not too crazy tall; athletic built with very soft curves. She isn't dressed sexy like some of the other teachers, a simple skirt molded across her hips and legs. Her shirt looks silky, short sleeves showing off her toned arms and I watch her every move hoping for her to bend enough for a glimpse of her breasts but the shirt hugs just below her
collarbone. I shift in my seat on the hard plastic chair
having to remove my eyes from grazing her body if I don't, I am threatening to break through my zipper.
That was the first day of school, the beginning
of September. It is now March, and I continue to get excited each Monday morning because I know today I will get to see Mrs. Stephenson. I see her each morning starting our day. "Good Morning Mrs. Stephenson."
"Good Morning Mr. Raines."
Her cheeks blush as her feet move her past me
down the hall, and once again, I am content today. I am still here, previous plans intact, except I have added a new goal to my mission for graduation night, to show Mrs. Stephenson how I feel about her.
No cheating/HEA A different kind of teacher/student romance.
This is my first release in almost a year. I wrote it during the time when my grandpa died and I graduated high school. A lot of my thoughts and searching went into the book process. In the end, I have this 20,000 word novella for you. Kindle edition is only 99 cents; paperback is under 5 dollars. It’s a quick, entrancing, thoughtful read that’ll stick with you after.
The wilderness shows no mercy.
In this dystopian journey, survival is key. Behind them, certain death. Ahead, a mystery called Home. The trail isn’t what it seems. And Lucy is sick.
Some say nobody comes back from Home. And others say they can’t

Meet Me at the Hanging Treehttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07...
This is my first release - so any feedback especially welcome.
It's a light-hearted romance mystery set in sunny Western Australia.
Val’s boyfriend proposes—at last—and the romance-challenged slug can’t even get that right. So she’s off with best friend Stella for the vacation of a lifetime!
An RV breakdown strands them in a picturesque Australian small town. After starting work at a boutique winery to pay for repairs, Val gets a second job as a journalist. Her attraction to her editor, sexy smart-ass Tim, is teetering towards love when a mob-backed consortium’s campaign for a casino development turns nasty.
With her man facing jail and her career in the dumpster, Val must pit her doubtful detective skills against a field of suspects that includes organised crime figures, a biker gang and corrupt local officials.

I'm looking for reviews of my first book, Haru, available free with Kindle Unlimited, or 99 cents to download.The main characters are Pacific Islanders who have been refugees for generations. They are joining a new colony comprised of all sorts of Asian cultures and ethnic groups trying to become one unified community.
Blurb: The future Earth is poisoned beyond repair. Order and resources are found in isolated areas; the rest of the world is plagued by famine and terrorized by local militias. For generations the Tasi family have been roving from place to place, searching for stability and peace. They finally find hope in a low-tech colony world being established on the planet of Pacifica. In pursuit of unity there will be one language, one way of life, and one all-powerful government. Anything that destroys unity will be put to a swift and unmerciful end. Anything.
The story unfolds through the eyes of various family members: 11-year-old Haru witnesses their escape from Earth and the long travel to their new planet; accustomed to wealth and technology, mentally unstable Akela deals with severe culture shock; hyper-vigilant father Loto will stop at nothing to keep his family safe. Have they found a secure haven, or have they exchanged one set of problems for another?

As much as I dislike Amazon they have some amazing authors I would not have discovered without a kindle. I tried nook but it doesn't compare.
Have you checked out booksprout.co , voraciousreadersonly.com is another new review site and then hidden gems is a third. The downside to hidden gems is they only give you about a week to read and review their books. That's not enough time for me because I have so many others to read and review.
Oh and I like AuthorsXP. They have two different options regular reviews or elite team reviews.
