All requests are closed! Sorry!!! The request limit was from the 1st - 20th though because I think I had the stomach flu or possibly my meds hate me…it lasted until the 22nd this month.

No write in’s for the polls. That’s why there’s the request time.

Sorry to the person who’s post I deleted in the poll.

Chris Sherrill (httpswwwevenstevenbookcom) | 1 comments Hi - I just released my debut psychological thriller, Even Steven, about a female detective hunting down a revenge serial killer in Nashville. It's loaded with tension and plot-twists which I think will make for a very exciting and quick weekend read for folks in this group.

Thanks so much for your consideration and let me know if you pick it up! Even Steven by Chris Sherrill
