Here is my review on Goodreads for Jigsaw: Shadow Ball
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
and my Amazon review
https://www.amazon.com.au/Jigsaw-Shad...

[Loralee, Admin]

Tenkara, Amazon can take a while to post reviews on their site. Sometimes it takes just a few minutes, other times it can take days. That is very normal. I have seen it take up to two weeks before. When the Amazon review does post, then you can post a link to it here.
Thank you for the Goodreads review to David's book.

Thanks, Seth. Your 1st review is complete!

Hi, I've suddenly stopped getting any notifications at all on Goodreads. Is anyone else having the same problem?

[Loralee, Admin]

I have also experienced that problem. Check that "Notify me when people comment" is checked. If it is, you can do a couple of things. Like me, you can just check every day to see if something has been updated, or you might consider checking with Goodreads itself, here: https://www.goodreads.com/about/conta...

I found I was not getting notifications, so I just checked back every day on the rounds I was in charge of to see if anyone had commented. And then one day I started getting notifications again. I could not tell you why that happened.

[David]

Hi Everyone. I hope you are all well. Here is the Goodreads review of Emma's book. I will post the Amazon link when it arrives. Take care and have a great weekend.

Hello, Mahmoud Tarek. This round is full and underway. But if you're interested in joining a review round, this one still has a few spots left to fill: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

In these review rounds, you join a round of 10 people and review 4 books, getting your book reviewed 4 times. You don't review the people who review you, since reciprocal reviews are against the TOS of Amazon and usually get deleted. Also, such reviews are often not accurate, that being the reason that Amazon deletes them when they find them.
Also, in order to participate in this round, your setting for 'Who Can Send Me Private Messages' needs to be 'anyone'.
Please follow this link, scroll down until you see "Who Can Send Me Private Messages:" then click on "anyone". After that, scroll to the bottom of the page, and click "Save account settings"

Thanks for the goodreads review, Tenkara.

[Seth]

Random post, but I just noticed I had a one star review on a book that usually does well. No biggie, right? But then I checked this person's page, Felix Joy, and they just started following Loralee and giving many of us from this group a ton of 1 star reviews. It says they are some sort of marketer(likely a scammer), and the profile looks very recent. Is there anything we can do to report this person? Probably not, but it seems quite obvious they are just targeting this group and may try to contact you with bogus offers to get them to change it or something.

Just a heads up.

https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1...

[Seth]

I am reporting them to Goodreads.

[Seth]

It now shows that the page is deleted or something, and Goodreads told me they are looking into it. Maybe they got it.

[Loralee, Admin]

Oh my! I sure hope Goodreads took care of it. Is the one star on your book still there, Seth?

[Seth]

The 1 star review is gone! Hopefully that fixed your books as well, and several other folks in our group. The person's page has been removed. Goodreads did nice work on this one!

[Loralee, Admin]

Yes they did. Good job to them, and good job to you Seth, for noticing and reporting the scammer!

Completed reviews so far. Completed is when both Goodreads and Amazon reviews are finished and links are posted here.

Everyone, especially Miriam, Emma, and Tenkara (since you three have just 1 review left to finish) once you are done, Group 380 which you can find here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... is looking for one more person to fill it. If that spot is still available when you finish, you might consider trying it. I couldn't as I have too many review conflicts with the group members already there. But one of you might be able to fit.

[Miriam]

Thanks for the heads-up, Loralee. I've already reviewed Whittney Corum's Winter Wind here on goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Amazon review just won't show up yet.

[Loralee, Admin]

Thank you for the Goodreads review, Miriam. Hopefully the Amazon review will show up soon. Sometimes they are quick, and sometimes they can take days!
