Việt H. Nguyễn (moki83) | 16 comments Hello everyone,

I'm Viet, and this is my best friend and collaborator, Nghịch Tử. We're available to review books, preferably fictions, though we might consider other books.

If you want to submit your book for review, or not sure if you would, follow the following steps:
Step one: Send us a link to either your book page on goodreads or Amazon. Or send me your book blurb in message.
Step two: If we're interested, we'll read the free preview, and send you a private message with our honest criticism.
Step three: If you like our style of criticism, and still want us to continue the rest of the book, then we can accept the full book via email.
Step four: After we're done with the full book, we'll send you either a private message or an email detailing all of our criticism, and a potential star rating if we were to post a public review.
Step five: If by then you'd still want a public review, we'll proceed to do that.

As we're not native English speaker, our reviews will focus mainly on logic, plot, world build, character build, development and consistencies (or lack thereof). We'll only point out grammar issues if they are too striking or are damaging to the flow of the book.

Note that on principle, we do not post reviews on books we don't like, so if you look through our pages, our reviews will mostly be positive and does not reflect how harsh our criticism can be.

Hi penelope. We will take a look on the sample of your book "The Hotel on Massacre Lane" and give some honest criticism while we at it. But how soon will it be depend on which one of us will take the job. My English is worse than Viet so I'll be much slower.

Good day and thank for entrusting us

Penelope Swan (penelopekahlerswan) | 191 comments How do you want "The Hotel On Massacre Lane" sent to you? The story is in print and ebook. I can have Amazon send either one to you if you have a US address or email address. This is great fun, Nghịch Tử, sharing across cultural borders.

My email address is pkswan00@gmail.com

Hi. We will only ask for / take the full book after we're done with the sample. We'll have to decide whether the book is for us or not, as everyone has their own liking and references. We'll send our criticism for the sample regardless whether we continue with it or not, so if constructive criticism is what you need and are looking for, then don't worry, you will get it.

Penelope Swan (penelopekahlerswan) | 191 comments Thank you. I have no idea what you mean by a "sample" beyond what it is possible to view on my website. Guess this won't work for us. Good luck as you proceed with others.

By sample I mean the look inside feature on Amazon, it would let readers read about 10% of the novel before they made their mind, think of it as a sort of trailer or teaser. But well, if you said so, good luck with your works

Victoria Liiv (victorialiiv) | 44 comments Hi Viet and Nghich,

I would be interested in your feedback and potential review. Would you be interested in reading a fantasy book?

Through Hell & Highwater is a story of how saving the Earth brings together a Shifter, two Vampires, Werewolves, an Elf, Half-Fae, a Wizard and an Orc. When the world is slowly turning into chaos the students are trying to find a way back. Back to what is safe and secure. But in order to do that, the students have to go through hell first.

Victoria
