Please delete the previous post, Sandra. This is not a discussion group for reviews, and the book you raved about is $3.99. This group is for listing free books.More self-promotional posts have been popping up recently, too (Darlene Jones, Jay Nichols, Antonio). Fans of the "Free books" discussion group may flag these as "self-promotional" and Goodreads will delete them if there are enough complaints. I intend to delete this post if the other non-conforming posts disappear.
My wish is to keep this discussion group clear of off-topic posts that waste our time. I hope the authors will use other available methods to promote their books. Good luck.
More classics! These editions were released over the past week.
The Three Musketeers Collection by Alexandre Dumas. The collection includes all six novels.
The Sherlock Holmes Collection by Arthur Conan Doyle. Eight novels included in this volume.
The Republic by Plato.
The Complete Confucius by Confucius. Three of his well-known texts are combined in one volume.

I'm banned from posting my book lists on a Reddit group because the lists are web pages on my personal web site. They consider that to be me self-promoting my web site. Even though I have no affiliate links or advertising. :)

I did not mention your name as a self-promoter because it is clear that you are not promoting books YOU wrote, or shilling for a friend. Your listings adhere to the mission of this group. Of course there would be some folks on Reddit who would find fault with your posts, but I believe many readers of this group love your contributions!
I don't have anything against those authors who self-promote. I just don't wish to see it here. I'm hoping others will flag them before hundreds of new authors notice that it's okay to post here, because no one flags the self-promoting posts. I believe it takes more than one flag for Goodreads to act, and I hope others will flag irrelevant posts to help keep this group clear of spam and self-promos.
