Hello Tamira. I need to send you a private message seeking your email address so I can send you my book for review. However I think there's some action you need to take for people to be able to send you messages. Could you activate it. Sorry I can't say what exactly it it you need to do since I'm not that great at this myself.

If you click on the names on the original list they will take you to the profile page of each author. There's a little downward arrow next to where it says "FOLLOW" on the profile page. Clicking that will bring up a list, from which you can select "send message".

[Loralee, Admin]

As J. E. mentioned, on an author's profile (assuming it isn't set to private) just under their picture is a button that says "Follow Author" next to the button is a little down arrow that looks somewhat like a V
If you click that, you will see the option to "send message"

I just checked, and Tamira seems to be able to receive messages.

[Gill]

Gill Mather

II regret that in the arrow below Tamira's photo doesn't seem to provide any 'send message' option. Gill

[Loralee, Admin]

Thanks, Gill. I sent you a pm about your situation.

Everyone:
Make sure to double check the list of who is reviewing you, and whom you are reviewing.

The four above you will review you. (The list wraps, so 10 is "above" 1.)

The four below you, you will review. (Again the list wraps, so 1 is "below" 10.)

The person five spots from you is in your blind spot, and you will not be reviewed by nor will you review that person.

For example, Ono/Nick is five spots away from me. As a result, I will not review or be reviewed by them.

I will be reviewing:
6. Cathy Perkins
7. J.M. Rutherford
8. Gill Mather
9. Laura Koerber

I will be reviewed by:
1. E.M. Swift-Hook
2. J.E. Rowney
3. Mary E. Hughes
4. Tamira Thayne


To double check who is reviewing you, and whom you are supposed to review, take a look at the lists on post #96.

Thanks for your review Loralee. You must be an ultra-speed-reader to get through that book within 24 hours! Gill

Just to say that The Second Dai and Julia Omnibus is now available from Amazon for free until 10 May if anyone wants to snag a copy :).

I’ve still not heard from Tamira, so I’ve done all the reviews I can for this round.

[Loralee, Admin]

Thank you for getting those three books reviewed J.E. Hopefully Tamira will be in contact with you soon.

[J.M.]

It took me 2.5 days of heavy reading, but here is my review for Gill Mather's "Class of '97"

I have submitted it to Amazon as well, but I am waiting for approval.

I can update with the link when it's up on Amazon.

Hello JM. Thank you so much for your review; very nice, very thoughtful. I know the book is a bit of a slog, The ending was intentional leaving the reader to guess what might be going to happen to the female character. Thanks again, Gill

[J.M.]

Gill,
You're welcome. Open endings aren't necessarily a bad thing... can keep the reader wondering and thinking about the characters, so I do understand the choice there.
-J.M.

[Mary]

Has anyone heard from Tamira? She is my Round # 1 and I'd like to get her book.

[J.E.]

Mary wrote: "Has anyone heard from Tamira? She is my Round # 1 and I'd like to get her book."

No, I’m still waiting for a copy too.

[Laura]

I don;t think people have to read the books in order. I rarely do and no one has ever expressed concern. (of course maybe I have been driving others nuts and just didn;t know it. )

As long as you read by the due date for each review you can read in whatever order you like. I’ve read the other books I’ve been allocated for this round and I can’t start the final one as I haven’t received it. It’s best to contact everyone that’s going to be taking time to read and review your book as soon as the list is confirmed.

[Loralee, Admin]

Yes, the end dates for each book are guidelines. What order you read in is not important. The last date is the important one. So long as you have all four books read by that date, you are fine.

Mary, if you are able, it’s perfectly fine to start reading your other assigned books.

I have messaged Tamira. Hopefully she will contact the people who need her book soon.

Has everyone else had trouble getting books to or from people?

[J.E.]

There seems to be a lag in posting my review for Felicity to Amazon. I have tried sending it to the US and UK sites, but the link hasn't come through to me yet. Will update when I get it!

US link came through and I’ve updated my post :)

[Loralee, Admin]

Sometimes it takes days and days J. E. No worries.

[J.M.]

Has anyone been in contact with Ono or Nick? That's the only book I still need. Thanks.

[J.M.]

My review for Class of '97 is finally up on Amazon

https://www.amazon.com/review/R19M4VG...

[Loralee, Admin]

Everyone, Please Read.
Unless they've mentioned on the thread that they will be buying your book, or reading it on KU, please make sure to get your book soon to the people who are assigned to read it. If people who need to read your book have not contact you, (or mentioned on the thread that they will be buying their four assigned books or reading them on KU) please contact them and work out how to get your book to them.


If someone has messaged you requesting a book, please send your book to the email they give you in the format they request, pdf, mobi, or epub. As is mentioned in post #1, we need to be able to send and receive at least PDFs.

[Gill]

Yes I've received the book of Ono's which I'm to review. She sent it to me by email as a pdf. Gill

[Tamira]

Hello, all, I was out of town for the Mother's Day weekend, and didn't take my computer with me. I have reached out to everyone who is to review my book through here and sent the book to Mary who reached out to me. If you need anything else please let me know. Thanks, Tamira

[J.M.]

Here is my review of Raven Woman's Tavern. I have submitted to Amazon as well, but do not have the link yet.

https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[J.M.]

I originally messaged Nick for a copy of Awakening, but have just now messaged Ono. For some reason Ono's "message me" link wasn't coming up on my phone app, and I was away from my computer. That's the only book I still need.

I have the other 2 books I will be reviewing. Progress has been slow this week due to my work schedule, but I'm working on it.

[Tamira]

Here are my reviews for In It For The Money

Holly Price Mystery #3

by Cathy Perkins

A little bit of confusion, because in Goodreads this book shows #3 in the series, but on kindle it seems to show #2. I have revised my review on kindle to reflect that (the edit isn't live yet, but the link is still working to the original review), but I'm not sure what's going on with that.

Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/review/R3GVYVR...

Thanks for pointing that out, J.M. My bad for missing that first amazon review from you. Two done for you.

Thanks, Tamira.
