I'm hoping it's helping. Uncaged is hitting over 30K views in the first month an issue is released, I'm hoping that's adding up to some kind of help for authors. My goal with Uncaged was to get the work out to the readers, and hope to see it work a bit for them in a very competitive market. How does any author become the next Nora Roberts or James Patterson without anyone seeing the work?

Personally, I've found books all types of ways, through browsing, word of mouth, and even my friend's blogs and some Facebook groups where books are mentioned. Probably not a surprise I belong to book groups, is it? :)

I of course, also have found many many new authors asking me to review - but my circumstances aren't the "normal." :)

Hi all! If you've been featured in Uncaged, has it helped you at all? I'd love to know if it has.

January issue will be releasing in a couple days!

I've never seen Cider House Rules, or read the book. I don't know why I haven't tried out Irving, I'll have to put that on my never-ending reading list.

I'm a pretty heavy reader, can go on a spree of a book a day, but sometimes I have to take a break and let my mind clear. That's one of the reasons I asked authors in interviews about "readers-block," it's what I call it. LOL Right now I'm reading Shadow Marked by Walt & Hamilton, a 2nd book in a series, then will jump back into January's featured authors books. I read 23 books last month. :)

Those are great books, very original. They surprised me a bit by not only being a good storyline, but also that a few social issues that plagues society these days are brought out. Philip is in the group somewhere, lol

As most already know, the December issue of Uncaged is released, and we do have a few of the authors that are in that issue, here in the group. I'll give this group a few more days, and then we will feature an author and go from there, welcome to the group!

What is everyone reading?
