Hello, folks,I am an author, and as such I am not able to review, due to conflict of interest. However, I do need reviewers! :-)
My first new major novel in a decade, Cobweb Bride -- an epic historical fantasy about love and death and death's ultimatum to the world -- is now available in an ARC edition for reviewers and bloggers.
I'd love to send you an electronic review copy in a format of your choice -- Kindle (mobi), EPUB or PDF.
Or, you can get it from NetGalley:
https://www.netgalley.com/catalog/sho...
All information on the book can be found here on the official Cobweb Bride website:

I hope you enjoy and have the chance to review it! Please let me know if you'd like to see the book.
Sincerely,
Vera Nazarian

I respect your position about authors not reviewing If you have a blog, even if it doesn't have reviews, you can still post a link to it in our "Blog-o-sphere" area.
As far as I personally am concerned, your thoughts on books are probably worth something to us. I'm okay with reviews as long as your not reviewing your own work or in some type of internet comment war with another person and using reviews as the weapons.
So, your still welcome and desired here if you don't review, and we want to see your blog if you have one. (I love your sense of humor). If you don't review, we still like comments about books on the book discussion threads and any other thread for that matter, if you feel that is outside of what's healthy for you, still drop by to let us know how your doing and to give us more chances to read your book!

Hello Everyone!I just published my book, "I'll Be Damned," and would love and appreciate some honest reviews! Plot as follows:
As the owner of the coffee shop Deja Brew in Savannah, Georgia, Anna thought her life was ordinary. That is until her sister is kidnapped by a demon, prompting two handsome men to march into her life unexpectedly. Valen, the sinfully gorgeous, overprotective werewolf who is Anna’s sworn guardian and Marlow, the most handsome and powerful Warlock in the entire Netherworld...[Please see my book for more description]!
I will offer five free copies via Smashwords coupon as soon as I receive anyone interested! If you could post reviews on Amazon, Kobo, Goodreads and Barnes & Noble that would be awesome!!! Also, if you post on Amazon, please MAKE SURE to state it's an honest review since you didn't buy it (I believe they will delete it otherwise)
Again, I thank you very much for taking the time to help out a fellow writer!!! :)I'll Be Damned

I'd like to request reviewers, but first I need to find out what everyone is willing to try. I write Bizarro fiction. Here's a pretty good primer for the genre/movement: http://bizarrocentral.com/about-bizarro/
But in a nutshell, Bizarro is weird fiction in most of its forms - science fiction, fantasy, crime, etc. The key difference is, it's weird as hell. It can be shocking and offensive, but that's also half the fun. There's gonzo way-out-there fringe Bizarro, and then there's more humor-based Bizarro that's maybe not quite as weird/surreal. I tend to write the latter. Most of my work is typically based in a relatively normal world where weird shits tends to happen.
Bizarro can get pretty sticky and gross sometimes. It can also be hilarious and so completely different from anything you've ever read before.
If you're curious and wish to know more, I would be happy to provide a free PDF of any of my published books (listed below). I've also got a new book slated to come out in July called YOU ARE SLOTH! If anyone is interested in getting the early beta version, hit me up and we'll work something out.
Muscle Memory
King of the Perverts
Samurai Vs. Robo-Dick
Your like is very good, steve. It really shows (tells) what Bizzaro is like cause, I could only guess from the name before now.
Hugh, could you please create a Bizarro category in the "Book Reviews - Common Threads" folder? I have a review for one I read. Steve, I'm not volunteering for 2 reasons. First, my TBR pile runneth over & I owe a couple of authors reads right now. Two, I've only read a couple in the genre. One I didn't even rate - just hated it on sight. I think that's typical with a genre like this, though. Either the story sucks me in like a tornado or it vomits on me. I can't imagine anything in between.
Jim wrote: "Either the story sucks me in like a tornado or it vomits on me. I can't imagine anything in between."That's a pretty fair assessment. Mainstream entertainment it ain't, that's for sure. The love/hate quotient for Bizarro is pretty high. But when you read that one that sucks you in like a tornado, it makes for a pretty great reading experience. It won't be for everyone, but it will definitely be different from what you've ever read before.
Thank you for making the topic, Hugh. I posted the review of the bizarro book I really liked, The Haunted Vagina. No, I'm not entirely sure why I even gave it a shot. The idea is repugnant, but...;-)

I am hoping you can help. I have written a novella which I hope to expand with more stories if enough people enjoy it. As this is my first book I would love your honest feedback (good or bad - both help me to improve!) I've made it free to make it as easy as possible for anyone to read it. It is only 20k words, so it's a nice quick read.

Hello, I'm Patrick, author of the Beatnik Spy series. I'm looking for Amazon reviewers for my latest release: Black Rum & Dynamite.The Beatnik Spy men's adventure series features the exploits of Gunner Quinn, a sometimes jazz musician and sometimes smuggler. Set in the 1950's, Gunner's adventures feature the classic elements of men's adventure: plenty of action, sinister villains, beautiful women, and exotic locales. I've tailored the Beatnik Spy stories to a modern sensibility, eliminating the more objectionable elements of the genre.
Oh, yes, and Gunner faces dark, supernatural forces in lonely, haunted corners of the Eisenhower era...
Check out more info at: http://beatnikspy.com/
If you are interested in a review copy of Black Rum & Dynamite, please respond with your email address and requirements so I can send you a copy. I will also have a free coupon available on Smashwords.
Thanks in advance for your kindness.
