YEEHA!

[Sass]

Kat hi. Looks clear to me.

[Amanda]

Good to go!

[Seth]

The only possible conflict I see is that Joseph has reviewed my book, Plutocracy of the Gods.

Seth, I don't think I've reviewed the book you're offering here, have I?

[Kat]

Seth wrote: "The only possible conflict I see is that Joseph has reviewed my book, Plutocracy of the Gods."

Seth, Joseph has reviewed one book by you, but you have four books total (including the one you are offering for this round.) So I believe you are okay?

[Angela]

Good to go! :) Sorry for the delay on my end!

[Kat]

Super, that's everyone! Give me a minute to get everything organized and I'll get us started.

[Kat]

Here we go! You SEND books to the 4 people ABOVE you, and receive from the 4 people BELOW you. If you think you see a mistake on the list, please leave a comment!

Please remember the commitment you are making to your fellow group members. If you pull out after the start date for any reason it is the other members who will be faced with the problem of finding a replacement, or missing out on reads/reviews, through no fault of their own. Please don’t ask the moderators to chase after replacements as we just don’t have the time.

It is the responsibility of the author to get their book to their readers in a format the reviewer can manage.

Everyone must be able to provide and accept PDF. You may buy or borrow the books you are due to read if you wish, and I’m sure the author will appreciate the verified review, but IT IS NOT COMPULSORY. There are no set dates for the start of each round. You can each work at your own pace, within the limits of the round deadlines.

All reviews must be posted to GR. We also encourage members to post on Amazon. When you have posted your reviews, please post the links to each of your reviews, not the book page in this thread.

The mod of each round will record whether members have posted reviews on Amazon and for the good of all, members who persistently fail to post reviews or DNF reviews to Amazon, will find mods less than willing to add them to subsequent groups.
Postings to other sites are by agreement by both author and reviewer.

If I’ve missed something that results in you being asked to review someone who has already reviewed you, please let me know asap.
To exchange book files, my advice is to use PM to give email addresses to each other (save the chance of spammers getting your addies from this open forum).

Setting up and modding these rounds is a labour of love, with a lot of emphasis on the ‘labour’. If you want to show appreciation for all the hard work we admins put in for the group, you could download one of our books as a ‘thank you’.

Happy reviewing, everyone :)

GUIDE FOR THOSE NEW TO THESE ROUNDS.

Quick 'start-up' summary for anyone new who might be scratching their heads. You are reviewing the four books 'below' you on the list.

You can, of course, choose to buy any or all of the books or read the books on KU, if you are a subscriber and the books are available there. If you can buy it adds weight to your review as it gives the 'Verified Purchase' stamp on Amazon.

However, as not everyone can buy, you should PM the four people who will be reviewing you (the four above you on the original list of names) through their Goodreads author pages. Click on the down arrow beside the 'Follow Author' button under their picture and it opens a menu which will allow you to message them.
Ask what kind of file they would like or say you can only offer PDF.
Don't forget to ask where to send it so they can give you their email.
The four people who you are reviewing should be in touch with you in a similar way.

Please make sure you have exchanged ALL FOUR books - or have been assured by your reviewers they will buy your book or read it through KU - as soon as possible.

Some people read fast and it can be very frustrating to have to wait a long time to get hold of a book you are committed to review.

Don't forget to post the links to your reviews here so you can be signed off for them.

Please post your review to Goodreads, your own Amazon store and any other Amazon stores you might have access to as well.

I will be modding this round. Please PM me ongoing with any issues. Thanks.

[Bella]

Thanks, Kat.

Thanks, Sass!

As a note to all, when posting Amz reviews, please remove everything after and including the letters "ref" in your review link. This will remove your personal identifying information and give you a clean link.

[Sass]

Ok thanks. As an FYI I posted Snigha's book to Amazon last week but still did not see the review when i checked today. My instinct was to add it again but there was no "leave a review" for me to add it so they must be waiting on it.

More when they let me know.

[Kat]

Thanks for those links!

Also, for those new to the group, Joseph and Sass in messages 82 and 81 have provided perfect examples of a "clean" Amz link where they have shortened the review link by removing everything after and including "ref" in the link. This will remove your personal identifying information.

[Joseph]

(blush)

[Juliette]

But by cutting the link on Goodreads, it just goes to the book and not the review.

[Kat]

Juliette wrote: "But by cutting the link on Goodreads, it just goes to the book and not the review."

Please see Joseph's links in message 82 as an example of clean links done perfectly on Goodreads. You cut right after the review number on GR.

[Joseph]

(wow.
i'm being used as an example of good behavior.
mom would be so pleased...)

[Kat]

[Juliette]

Here are my reviews for this round. I still owe a couple Amazon ones, but they aren’t showing yet, and I’m off on vacation, so I’ll post them in a couple of weeks.

Thanks for the great reads!

Fixed it. Not sure what I was doing to miss that.
