Hi honey! I am Dave J. Williams, author of the Medieval fantasy Sineria: The Great Kingdom. I've been seeking to get some more reviews for this book, so I see this as a good opportunity. I'll post the synopsis to see what you think. Immerse yourself into an adventure through one of the greatest Medieval kingdoms known; Sineria. Here, you'll meet 10-year-old Hayden Grace, who although very young, is capable of proving that he doesn't let his age or being poor get in the way of being heroic when he must. While he goes on a risky journey to find riches for his family, his kingdom is soon threatened by an unhinged sorcerer who wreaks havoc on them. Hayden and Sineria, both at different places, both struggling to survive. Will Hayden get what he needs to help his family, or will the fire-breathing dragons, ogres, or wild animals get to him first? Will the great kingdom of Sineria escape the sorcerer's wrath unharmed and prove to be a truly great kingdom, or will the Sinerians have to get used to the reign of a mad magic-maker? Go on this great Middle Age adventure to find out.
If you'd like to review it, I can email the book as a .pdf to you, as it's the only way I can send this book. Thank you for this and have a great day.

Hi Honey! If you are currently taking review requests I'd love your book club to review my YA dark fantasy, Stonebearer's Betrayal. It's sequel will be coming out in the next two months so I'd love to create a buzz and get the attention of new readers!
About Stonebearer's Betrayal:
Forbidden magic compelled Katira to live a lie, but learning the truth is far more dangerous than she ever dreamed.
When an innocent hunting trip turns into an attack, Katira's world fractures. Her humble parents are actually legendary Stonebearers - immortal, powerful beings tasked with protecting the human world from creatures of the mirror realm.
Those cracks widen and shatter apart when the Archdemoness, Wrothe, escapes from her timeless prison and snatches Katira away, intending to use her as bait to destroy not only her family line, but the entire Stonebearer Society.
If Katira is to be made whole again, she must learn to trust the young stranger who's trying to save her while finding the strength to accept not only her parents' power, but her own.

I have a YA urban fantasy series that I'd love to have you review if you think it's something you'd like.
Here's the synopsis:
The balance between good and evil comes down to one girl.
But is the darkness really so bad?
Emma Duvall starts senior year with one thing in mind: make Seattle, home.
All her life her mother lived with one foot out the door, but no more. That is, until Emma discovers she has the power to turn terrifying creatures of the night to ash with a single touch. That one moment unveils a hidden world of supernatural beings, both good and bad.
Suddenly her best friend is acting strange, the new guy that's mysteriously in every one of her classes is too beautiful to be human, and an ancient, powerful being is stalking her.
To top it off, the "good guys", the Giborim, aren't convinced that Emma can be trusted. But their unofficial leader, Blaze, becomes her unwilling protector--and perhaps something more--setting fire to millennia of hard-set prejudices.
Especially when her newfound power awakens a deep and dark hunger that can only be sated with death.
It's 110k words. Let me know if that sounds like something you're interested in!
Greetings,
I’m writing to you in hopes that you would take my book for review. I am a debut author writing and working on a magical realism trilogy. The series is titled Astronimacy, the individual novellas are titled:
Awakened Dreams | Beyond the Chamber | TBA/TBD.
The first of these is complete and available for pre-order on Amazon in Kindle format.
I am looking for honest reviews that can be posted to Amazon. Being an author I’m a bit shy and/or reclusive in nature. So I haven’t been brave enough as of yet to host my own YT channel.
I would like to submit my book to you in PDF format if you would agree to give it a review. I understand that your main source of review may indeed be exclusive to YT, therefore, I ask permission to post the transcript of your review on my author website if you are a YT reviewer.
Title: Awakened Dreams: Astronimacy Trilogy Book One
Genre: Magical Realism
Word Count: 25,687
Pages: 115-118
Email: cjeh@pm.me
Synopsis:
Meet Hayden Scoloff, a withdrawn high school sophomore outcast having only a handful of friends and his home life is as equally bleak.
We find Hayden at the end of the last day of school before summer break unchaining his bike from the school's bike rack while being taunted by Jackson Perilli, the all-star pitcher for the high school’s baseball team. Jackson invites Hayden to go spelunking, what Hayden doesn’t know is that Jackson plans to leave Hayden lost and stranded down in the caves over the weekend due to Jackson's jealousy for Hayden. In those caves and through a certain set of circumstances Hayden meets Sloan and, is taught Astronimacy.
Astronimacy is a real and eclectic system of divination created by the book’s author. What makes Astronimacy different from other systems is that it is eclectic.
Eclectic: not following any one system, as of philosophy, medicine, etc., but selecting and using what are considered the best elements of all systems.
Astronimacy also offers a mathematical formula showing that there is a mere two percent (2%) margin of error if and when done correctly.
Therefore, your not only purchasing a fiction novella but also a very real system of divination. Be sure to follow Hayden not only through His cave ordeal but through the trilogy. Taking you through his adolescence and on into adulthood. Giving you the advantage to watch him grow.
Author Bio:
I suppose this is where I am supposed to tell you that with my books all your troubles will vanish away, or that without reading my books you’ll have 6,000 years of bad luck or, that if all else fails you should wear my books around your neck because they are infused with some God-like power. All I can say that I write my books intending to encourage, enlighten, and empower the reader with hope for the future and to encourage them to follow their path. As a survivor of multiple gunshot wounds sustained on Feb. 20th, 1999, which ended my construction career, I went back to school, where I got my EMT/IV license. After having a seizure, thankfully between shifts, I found myself back at the “drawing board” so, I went back to school to become a physical therapist, however, the college math proved more than I could take on due to the damage caused by one of the bullets which entered my temporal lobe. In 2017 I received an Honorary Juris Doctorate Degree from The American Justice Foundation. I hope it is evident that while some factors of my body may be broken my spirit isn't one of them. Through my life's adventure, I can personally attest to the power of the human spirit and it is this I strive to foster in my readers. Before writing I studied multiple disciplines of divination, Astronomy, Astrology, Kabbalah, Magic, and more. These have all find a way into my writing. And I would be remiss if I did not mention my desire to bring these principles of the occult sciences to the world through my writing in the Magical Realism genre to foster the wonder and the spirit that resides in each of us. I am the creator of Astronimacy. An eclectic system of divination this, together with the Astronimacy Trilogy books are my Magnum Opus and all that I hope to be now hangs upon them.
Sincerely,
C. J. Hambye
Hi Honey - thanks for your interest in reviewing books!THRESHOLD OF DESTINY is the first volume in my new paranormal & fantasy romance series. It's available as an ARC in all formats.
If you like paranormal/fantasy elements, dark spirits and lots of romance, you might enjoy this atmospheric and fast-paced story. (Note: this is a clean read). Here's the blurb that will be on Amazon in mid-May:
Clever, dark and dangerous... he’s a 200-year-old English vampire with a penchant for old poetry. Sensitive and psychic... she’s working for an undercover organization. And she knows his secret.
When Tressa Newman sets out on her first assignment, it’s nearly midnight. Soon she’s alone on a dark street with a vampire, only he’s not what she expected. To follow protocol – or to improvise? She’s forced to make her own choice on the spot.
As her strange acquaintance with the subject of her mission continues, she learns that the clever, dark-haired vampire is much older than he looks. Moody and opinionated, he’s surprisingly knowledgeable when it comes old poetry, but he’s also street-savvy and cool-headed as he steps in to protect her from a number of threats.
But it’s only a matter of time before she’ll have to cease all contact with him. And when she stumbles upon a hidden agenda that’s taking over her organization, it becomes even more obvious that her secret longings will never come true, for a nightmarish fate seems to be in store for both of them.
This is a full-length novel of 150,000 words. Timeframe for posting a review: on or near May 15.
Thanks for considering this book!

Blurb:
Two strangers on the same path.
Survivors. Companions.
They will be each other’s salvation.
On a rainy, winter night, a mysterious woman in a red dress seeking shelter comes inside the restaurant Kabir was busy working in —primarily the bar— and night after night, drink after drink, she comes back to the same spot. That is where he sees her for the first time.
Hundreds of patrons around her try to speak with her daily, but she dismisses them. It appears she wants to remain in a blissful peace alone with her booze and books. After seeing the mysterious woman reading a book, and because of his shy nature, Kabir gains entrance into her life by anonymously leaving books with notes for her.
The Name of Red is the story of two strangers, two different personalities who meet on a winter, rainy night who challenge each other. They have a connection which blossoms into a friendship due to their fondness of books. But they both have secrets that can bind them together or threaten their newfound relationship forever.

Hi Honey! Thank you for your interest in reviewing books! I am about to release the second book in a series and am looking for reviews for the first book, and of course, if the readers like it, the second book as well!
The first book is a paranormal romance, taking place in steampunk Victorian London. The second book takes place in the present.
(Should you also be interested in adult contemporary and YA paranormal, I have published books in those genres as well.)
The Abiding
Opening the door to her farmhouse after hunting for dinner, Emeline Huntley finds the one thing she never expected in their quiet countryside- her entire family murdered.
In Victorian London, plans have been put into motion to create the ultimate weapons. William Rathbone and his group of scientists have managed to isolate the strengths of three creatures that have lived under society’s nose for centuries. Armed with his new tonic, Rathbone heeds to a prophesy that a certain group of children born, will be able to transform into this new breed of humans.
Controlled by clockwork collars with hidden blades sharp enough to cut through bone, The Abiding must follow their new master and his vindictive desires, or pay with their own lives.
While one other prisoner seeks to only protect her, another will stop at nothing to prove to Emeline that she must join him, if they are ever to leave the grasp of their creator. Now Emeline must decide whether she can see through her master's plan of revenge, in the hopes he will someday free her, Nathaniel and the others or join Alexander and rid herself of the very man who killed her family and turned her into a monster.

My Foreign Master’s Degree- When Dreams Encounter Realism, Miracles Happen (Book by Parul Bhatia)
Hi Honey,Maybe you'd like to review my new book (Contemporary Romance), "Pride And Intentions".
The book finally came out yesterday on Amazon. If you like books like "The Notebook" by Nicolas Sparks or and "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen, I’m sure you’ll like this book.
An unofficial guide to love and trust, a romantic story and family drama, a tale about female strength... Set in beautiful castles in the middle of the twentieth century, this is a story about Doris Rose the daughter of an English oligarch who cannot forget the poor young man who stole her heart a long time ago when her parents forcefully separated them.
But love has the power to turn the dark tragedy of their past into a miracle.
Reborn as one of the richest men in England, the former poor boy from her childhood returns to the lives of her parents ...
Morally marred by lies, deception and secrets from her parents ’distant past, the former mistress of Magnolia Castle, Doris Rose, is forced to abandon her wealth and become an ordinary girl from the suburbs.
She blames the very man she secretly loves for her misfortune.
Is the love stronger than hatred? Is love stronger than wealth?
How will the turbulent relationship between the oligarch’s daughter and the poor thief of her heart end? Are they ready to put everything at stake for the sake of love?
Doris Rose tells us this story as an old lady. It is a tale about the power of a woman; about her strength to defeat everything that can break her heart; how every woman can become strong,
confident, independent and able to recognize true love.
An edifying story that will make you believe in love that is maybe right in front of your eyes even if you haven’t learned to recognize it yet.

Hello, Honey. I'm Hayleigh and I've recently published a new novel in the romantic fiction genre, Book Review.

Synopsis:
Dr. Sophie Grimaldi, successful and happy in her career, if not in love, is contentedly single and plans to remain that way. Books have always been her escape and the only place she still allows herself to believe men are decent and true love exists.
Author Jax Rowland is writing the first book of his next spy thriller series, struggling to forge a deeper connection between his protagonist and not-another-Bond-girl to appease the disenchanted female portion of his audience.
When Sophie finds a sheet of Jax’s notes in a library book, she’s appalled by his attempt at writing a love scene and critiques it, never imagining the author will read her review. Ashamed to view his work through a mystery critic’s eyes, he recognizes her talent and hires her to edit the love scenes of his next novel. As they get to know each other through the work, discovering all they share in common, a desire for more than a working relationship, more than friendship grows. But, after a series of missed connections, it seems fate has other plans.
Will they continue to play it safe and single or will they risk another heartbreak for a chance at love?
Note: Book Review is a full-length standalone romance with some adult language. The end of this book is not a cliffhanger but, if you prefer a tidy conclusion, this may not be the book for you. Reader discretion is advised.
Hi Hannah,I was wondering if you would be interested in reviewing my novel, In the Realm of Ash and Sorrow, a blend of historical fiction and magical realism set in Japan during the closing months of World War 2. The book launches on August 1,2020. Here is the back cover blurb.
When bombardier Micah Lund dies on a mission over Hiroshima, his spirit remains trapped in the land of his enemies. Dazed, he follows Kiyomi Oshiro, a war widow struggling to care for her young daughter, Ai. Food is scare, work at the factory is brutal, and her-in-laws treat her like a servant. Watching Kiyomi and Ai together, Micah reconsiders his intolerance for the people he'd called the enemy. As his concern for the mother and daughter grows, so does his guilt for his part in their suffering.
Micah finds a new reality when Kiyomi and Ai dream--one which allows him to interact with them. While his feelings for Kiyomi deepen, imminent destruction looms. Hiroshima is about to be bombed, and Micah must warn Kiyomi and her daughter.
In a place where dreams are real, Micah races against time to save the ones he loves the most.
In the Realm of Ash and Sorrow is a tale about love in its most extraordinary forms--forgiveness, sacrifice, and perseverance against impossible odds.
The book has received some excellent reviews including a starred review from Kirkus, and was recommended for the American Library Associations "Most notable books of the year list." I would be honored to have you review the novel. I have a variety of formats available including; paperback, mobi, epub, and PDF. The book is also available to download on NetGalley. Thank you for your time.
Best regards,

Short blurb:
Shortly before a meteorite strike killed almost everyone on Earth, Cassidy Jones’ family was among the few who left. They spent the following thirteen years in Petriville, a Victorian-style town that hovered at the center of a sphere and moved through Earth’s orbit.
Cassidy is now sixteen, and Petriville is due to return to Earth when, out of the blue, the hologram of Eric visits her.
He had survived the meteorite strike in an Earth-based refuge, but Petriville’s founder holds no place for these people.
She wants them destroyed and the stricken planet repopulated by only her chosen people.
Thanks so much,
Carryn W. Kerr
Greetings, Hannah,Please review my as-yet unpublished first novel, On the Steps of St. Dymphna. You'll find an advance review copy at this link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1J...
Here is all the pertinent info:
Author: Tony G. Rocco
Genre: Urban Fantasy/Magic Realism
Length: 60,000+ words
Publication Date: September 14, 2020 on Amazon
Synopsis:
On the Steps of St. Dymphna tells a story of transformation. John, a normal cubicle slave with a bland and ordinary life, is transformed by an enlightenment experience. Or, did he just go crazy? He’s not really sure, but either way, he becomes a dramatically different person.
From bored support representative at GMC Megatronics, he transforms himself into Pastor John, a flamboyant free spirit spouting spiritual nostrums and intent on not only radically transforming his own life, but bringing joy and purpose to the lives of others.
To this end, he joins forces with a rag-tag group of homeless and starts The New Life Church of the Godhead of the Bed, so named for the locus of his awakening — an ordinary bed.
John and his following set their sights on St. Dymphna’s House of Hope, a local sanitarium run by the authoritarian Big Mama, where they attempt to help the needy and comfort the afflicted. They face numerous obstacles that threaten to derail their mission, but with the help of a local religious radio station and a large group of feisty supporters, they persevere and ultimately triumph. For a while.
Steps explores the emptiness of modern life and the desperate lengths necessary to live a life of purpose. It deals with themes of spirituality, alienation, faith and compassion. It is truly a tale for modern times.

Thank you for your time and attention.
Best wishes,
Tony
