Gina Fontenot (bookgirly37) | 7 comments Hi, I’m Gina. I am new to being a beat/ARC readers. I love to read and I figured I’ll try to help authors.
I will never bash a author or a story. If I do not care for a story I try to take a break and then try to pick it up. If it’s not for me I still try to write what I liked about a book.

My favorite things to read are
YA
Fantasy
Romance
Horror
LGBTQ

If you want me to read your story please message me if y ou want.

I am new to beta/ arc reading too,
Right now I am writing a fan fiction to memorialize Matthew Perry . Will likely need to change the character names so I don’t get sued by Warner Brothers.

Also working on a children’s book manuscript and having trouble developing certain characters in it.

Please provide emails so I can send links to my fan fiction and the google doc for my manuscript

Hi Gina, I tried to message you but you don't accept messages.

I have a new mystery/crime fiction novel coming soon.
Your Uncover Brother is a quirky detective mystery. If you have time I can send you an ebook for review. Here's a description:

Able Body, the private investigator with the funny name, runs a small suburban detective agency. Living an unglamorous lifestyle of late-night stakeouts, cold coffee, and stale donuts. He pays his bills following cheating spouses and catching small-time criminals.
When his former girlfriend, a woman he has tried for ten years to forget, asks him to help find her husband’s murderer, his life takes a perilous turn. The investigation catapults him into a web of deceit and intrigue that almost costs him his life.
In a race against time, Able vies to solve the case before a hot-headed police detective arrests the wrong person.

Here's a link to Chapter 1 sample:
