A.M. Kuska | 34 comments I am posting this with permission from Sierra. Although I don't know how to add a folder, so maybe she can fix this when she is online next. :)

I am a new author and just published my first novel, "The Bargainer." It's a young adult novel about a girl who goes on a quest to save her sister from dragons.

I asked Sierra if we could do a "Read to Review" sort of thing with it. I will give anyone interested (From Books n' Music only) a free copy of the book in exchange for an honest review on Amazon and Good Reads.

This is the only good read group I actually read, so I wanted to share my book with the cool people here. :)

If you would like to read this book, please post your e-mail here, or if you're not comfortable publishing it message me,or email me at andrea@amkuska.com and I will e-mail you a copy of the book to read.

I hope some of you will be interested and let me share my book with you, and if Sierra is interested in continuing the program, I'd love to read and review other authors too. :) It's pretty fun.

Thanks everyone for your time! And Sierra if I didn't do this right please feel free to edit/move etc.


Crystal (wisegirlonfire) I would like to read the book. My email is cklose12@gmail.com

I would love to read it! So you can email me the book? And what if we don't have an amazon account?


A.M. Kuska | 34 comments Scarlet - if you want to just post it on Good Reads that's fine too. :) I'm glad to see you guys are interested!

Crystal I will send you a copy right now.

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments Thank you Scarlet for marking The Bargainer as "to-read" it makes me do cartwheels and squeal and scare everyone else in the house. ;-)

Krystal (misslady022) Your book sounds so interesting I love to read it can I get a copy please. my E-mail is misslady022@yahoo.com

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments Thank you Krystal! I sent you a copy, and the people who emailed me privately also. I believe I am caught up now. :D Let me know what you guys think!


Kay (❦ ᴗ ❦ ✿) BooksandMe (iamkayiee) | 45 comments Question:

Upon receipt of the book, do you have a time limit as to when to post the review? Most R2R does. Just want to know. Thanks


message 17: by A.M. (new) - rated it 5 stars

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments That's a good question. I've participated in two R2R's before, and while I can read most books very quickly I felt pressured by the time frame. I don't want anyone from Books n' Music to feel pressured, so I feel reluctant to impose a time limit.

Of course, I do check Books n' Music 1,567 times a day to see if anyone has said anything yet. ;-) I guess I'm just excited.


Kay (❦ ᴗ ❦ ✿) BooksandMe (iamkayiee) | 45 comments Any other rules? Just so everything can be cleared out. :)


message 19: by A.M. (new) - rated it 5 stars

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments Well, please don't mass mail a copy to everyone you know. Sierra mentioned that you need to put, "I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review" somewhere in the review.

It might also be nice to mention Books n' Music somewhere to try and get more traffic. LoP does that and they've got tons of members.


Kay (❦ ᴗ ❦ ✿) BooksandMe (iamkayiee) | 45 comments Yes, I have tried reviewing in LoP so I just want rules to be establish here also, not just for the reader's but the author's benefit as well.

I would love a copy! I don't have an Amazon account though, so is it okay if I just review it here? My email's bethcu7318@outlook.com if you're willing!


message 24: by A.M. (new) - rated it 5 stars

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments I'd love to give you a copy Beth. :) As long as I get a few amazon reviews it will be fine. I'll be glad to give you a copy in exchange for a good reads review.

Thanks everyone for your interest! I am so excited to hear what people think. :D

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments Has anyone cracked it open yet? I probably shouldn't ask but I'm dying of curiosity. You can ignore my questions. :D


message 26: by [deleted user] (new)

A.M.~ I am sending you my email address right now! Sorry for the wait.


message 27: by A.M. (new) - rated it 5 stars

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments No worries!! I think its me. It's my first r2r, so I refresh the page 12 times an hour >.< I sent it. :)


message 28: by [deleted user] (new)

Thank you!!


Kay (❦ ᴗ ❦ ✿) BooksandMe (iamkayiee) | 45 comments A.M. wrote: "Thanks Kayiee, I sent you a copy!"

Okay thanks! I'll post the link to my review here when I'm done. :)


message 30: by A.M. (new) - rated it 5 stars

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments That's odd. I wonder what happened to Scarlet? It says "Deleted user" now.

Yay, Kayiee!! I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts. :D


Kay (❦ ᴗ ❦ ✿) BooksandMe (iamkayiee) | 45 comments I had that thoughts, too. While reading the comments.


message 33: by A.M. (new) - rated it 5 stars

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments Thank you! What a wonderful review :D

Thanks! :)


Crystal (wisegirlonfire) the last sentence is "Kathy would have wanted it that way" right?


message 36: by A.M. (new) - rated it 5 stars

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments Correct. :) Did I mess that up?


Crystal (wisegirlonfire) Nope, I was making sure it had all loaded. Sometimes my PDFs don't load everything.


message 38: by A.M. (new) - rated it 5 stars

A.M. Kuska | 34 comments I'm glad you checked. If there is a piece missing I definitely want to know about it. >.<

Just wanted to say thank you so much to everyone who has reviewed my book. :) Your reviews have influenced hundreds of people to check it out, and I've gotten so many awesome letters about it. (And no small amount of pressure to finish the next book. Yikes!)

I don't think it would have gotten nearly as much attention if it wasn't for you guys, and I'm so grateful you gave my book a chance. Thank you!


Kay (❦ ᴗ ❦ ✿) BooksandMe (iamkayiee) | 45 comments You're welcome. Happy I was able to help :)
