IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR EVERYONE

Please return to the first message on this thread and reread the group rules.

Even if you have been participating for ages, please refresh yourself on the rules for this group.

We have been experiencing several issues and instances of rule-bending and breaking in this group as a whole. This behaviour isn't going to be tolerated and anyone doing this risks being refused a place in future rounds if it continues.

Your moderators work voluntarily and do not need to be dealing with adverse situations on a regular basis. It's a labour of love, but if it stops being that there will be no moderators!

Please remember that we are all authors and readers here and should treat each other in an honest and respectful way.

Thanks for listening - now go take a minute to reread those rules.

Cheers!

Hey everyone,

Hope you are all well.

The deadline for round 3 is looming (Tuesday) and there are a handful of reviews to come by then, so this is just a gentle reminder.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and for those who get Monday off - happy Labor day!

Take care.

Here's my review for Saturnius Mons for Goodreads. I'll post the Amazon review once it's approved:

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

I believe this concludes my 4 novels for this Review Round. Can't wait to join another Round with my soon-to-be-released newest novel!
Thanks everyone for the educational and fun experience. And thanks Trish for being our hostess.

[David]

That was fast! Must not have much to do on Labor Day.

Well done everyone. Round three in the books for you all and we are on the home straight.

One review left for those who haven't already finished. Line 'em up for me when you have them. Our last deadline is September 28th.

Thanks so much.

Hey all,

A gentle nudge to remind you that we have 10 days to go to the end of this group.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. As always PM me if you have any problems/questions.

Hey, Darrell!

Yes, it's odd how that worked out. You will get three reviews before the 28th if everyone is on time. It just worked out that way as not everyone reviews their books in the suggested order given (not a requirement). Everyone left in the round only has one more review to do.

Thanks.

Trish

Just that Amazon link when you can.

Hey all,

A quick PSA
It seems like there has been a reset of some settings in Goodreads which means the default of only being able to PM friends has kicked in.

To participate in this group, we need to be able to PM each other to make sure we all have the books we need to read and review. Being 'friends' on here is not a requirement of that.

Please make sure you edit your settings...
Account Settings > Edit my User Profile > Settings > Privacy
Check 'anyone' under 'Who can Send Me Private Messages'

Thanks all.

Trish

[Jeremy]

Well it would appear that Amazon's latest kerfuffle is holding up my review. But, since we are getting down to the wire, here's the Goodreads review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Bonus Review on my blog: https://www.sagaofinsanity.com/2021/0...

And I'll update this with the amazon link as soon as it comes down. Thanks for the lovely stories everyone. See you next time.

edit: Bloody finally. Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/review/RXGPMKG...

Thanks, Jeremy.

Nice of you to put it on your blog too.

Yes, just two days to go but if the Zon takes longer, just pop it up here when it comes through. TY

See you around.

My review of Saturnius Mons is complete.

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

Amazon:
TBD (waiting on it to post)

Sorry for the delay, I hate coming in this close to the wire - between reading 2/3rd of the wrong book for one of my reviews that put me way behind, and then some RL issues (including a minor hospitalization), I wasn't sure I was going to get done in time. Yeesh!

Hey Matthew,

Absolutely no worries. I'm here to the bitter end always! I've even had to nudge myself in a round I was in! LOL Please do not worry and so sorry to hear about the hospitalization though glad it was minor. Keep taking good care of yourself. RL can suck big ones sometimes!! You can always reach out to me or whoever is modding via PM anytime there's a hold up with just an FYI - we understand that stuff gets in the way sometimes.

Well done getting finished and the Zon link, please, whenever they deign to approve it!

Cheers.

Pop the Zon link on here when you have it.

FYI - there is a way to hide spoilers on Goodreads so people only get them if they click on the link to do so. Could you please do that with the spoiler you put at the end of this review?

Thanks.

Trish

[Trish]

Well thank you to everyone.

All the Goodreads links are in.

Just waiting on Amazon for the last couple to be approved and we are golden.

Thanks for being a solid group.

See you all around.
