Advanced Copies for Review & Book Giveaways discussion

Hello! My name is Melody, and I am a nineteen-year-old book fanatic with a love for historical fiction, fantasy, and dystopian novels. I am in the process of creating a book review website to share my thoughts on all of the great literature out there, and I am in search of ARCs. This is strange, but I have an eye condition that makes it hard for me to read for long periods on my phone, so physical copies would be appreciated. However, I am open to pdf/epub books. I can also post reviews on Goodreads/Amazon.

Also, if anyone has any tips or suggestions to help guide me on this journey, please comment or message me. Thank you!

Hi Melody,

I might have a book you could be interested in :)
Through Hell & Highwater is my first finished book. It is a fantasy story. A story of how saving the Earth brings together a Shifter, two Vampires, Werewolves, an Elf, Half-Fae, a Wizard and an Orc. When the world is slowly turning into chaos the students are trying to find a way back. Back to what is safe and secure. But in order to do that, the students have to go through hell first.

Let me know if that's something you'd like to read :)

Hi! My name's Rachel, and I recently published a book of poetry. It's about the aftermath of a failed relationship and learning to love yourself and reflect on the pain. I can send you PDF/epub/mobi format. I'd really appreciate it if you left an honest review for me! Thank you! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08NVDZJYF

Hi Melody,
I have a historical romantic comedy you might like?

The Lady Detective by Ava January

London's lawbreakers and loathsome lords... beware!

How does a wealthy widow avoid the marriage market in 1890s London?

If you're Lady Theodosia Fortescue-Brown, you hide behind outrageously bad clothing and glasses you don't need.

After the disappearance of her husband, Theodosia can't imagine giving up her freedom to marry again and relishes her role as detective to the ladies of the upper echelons of society.

When a priceless necklace on loan from the Royal family is stolen, Theodosia must work with the scandalous Lord Montague to recover it before the theft is discovered.

But somewhere between setting a brothel on fire, being knocked out in a cemetery in the middle of the night, and narrowly avoiding death via Scotch egg, Theodosia and William fall in love..

Hi Melody

Since you're a fantasy lover, perhaps you might like to read and review my novel.

Shifting Stars

Blurb:

My name is Arshes Megane and I am immortal.
My Time Intervention is illegal and dangerous, but I believe it’s the only way to save our world.
To begin my justification, I must tell you about my mother, Catriona, a half-Faery magic student, on the best and worst day of her life. The day her home is destroyed by a terrible Monster. The day her Angel restores it and gives her a gift. Understanding that gift becomes her obsession.
With the aid of pioneering magic and ridiculous radical plans, Catriona allows nothing to stand in her way, until the day her quest forces her to make a terrible choice between preserving knowledge that could save the future and saving lives in the present.
At what price comes knowledge, and what price is too high?

The main seeting is pseudo Victorian, but the whole thing is told by the protagonsist's daughter 1000 years in the future who s dealing with the consquences of her mother's choices.

Depending on where you are, I could either send a physical copy myself, or have a free gift copy sent from Amazon.

Thanks for your interest.

Hello Melody.

I have just released a new novella you might enjoy:

#
Charmer on the Roof: a modern-day fantasy novella, with a touch of humor and villainess romance.

The Blurb:
A charmer stole his fiancé's love. In return, he'll take his life.

An enchanting young roofing contractor moves into number three Flintstone Terrace. All the girls in the exclusive private village drool over him, including Bert's fiancé, Olive. When Bert catches them in a passionate embrace, his jealousy takes deadly control.

But the villainous charmer is no fool, and there's something more sinister in the works than Bert's violent revenge can deal with. Soon, he finds himself at the contractor's mercy.

So far I have no reviews, so you have a chance to be the first. Let me know if this sounds interesting.

Happy reading, James

Hi Melody,
I have a dystopian scifi called Game of Mass Destruction if you're interested. I posted the blurb bellow. If it's something you're interested in I can send it over to you.

Blrub
Yuzuko's perfect world is disturbed when she is forced to take part in the 30th season of Game of Mass Destruction, a reality tv show where twenty contestants have to fight robots and each other for a chance to become a billionaire. Each robot they destroy gives points, but extra points are rewarded for acts of sex and murder. Whilst Yuzuko is united with online friends, she discovers dark secrets about her family as she confronts the gameshow's owner the notorious Sia Bucks. Will she survive and become victorious or will it be a comedy of errors with violence and chaos?

Hi Melody,

Nice to meet you! Are you interested in reading a YA cross-genre story with elements of family and social issues, extreme sports, conspiracy, murder, mystery, teen romance as a subplot, and even sci-fi and dystopia a little? Cruel Summer is such a novel and it also carries a strong message of friendship. Even though I originally wrote it in Croatian 20 years ago, it is a hot topic now.

I will release it on Amazon as a short pre-order on February 23-24, so no Amazon or Goodreads links yet. But you can see the cover and the blurb (which I also copy here in the message for you) together with the sample chapter on the following links:

Cruel Summer cover and blurb reveal on my website: https://bit.ly/3oFb7O3
Cruel Summer sample chapter: https://bit.ly/2YHBZmi

Cruel Summer blurb:

All he wants to do is skate. But they have other plans for him.

Michael Daniels is seventeen and dreams to enter professional skateboarding contests. But beneath New Manhattan, a city under the oppressive shadow of climate change, exists another world altogether—secret laboratories which threaten society as he knows it.

Those with power will get what they want. No price is too high, even if it means making someone special or robbing them of their dignity, freedom . . . or life.

The price is too high for Michael, though. He has endured his stepfather’s abuse and mind games for almost as long as he remembers. Until one day he takes matters into his own hands, ruining the lives of those he loves most. And his skateboarding friends, Alien and Victor, are his only hope for freedom.

When there is no hope left, friendship is what remains.

Please let me know if you are interested in reading and reviewing it. I can send you a PDF or mobi file. Drop me a message into my Goodreads inbox or here, whatever is more convenient to you.

Thanks and take care,

Bernard
