Goodreads Reviewers' Group discussion

Hi everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself since I'm new to the group. Definitely not new to Goodreads, just expanding my horizons into the group world.

I'm active on goodreads, bookbub, amazon, netgalley, and booksirens. I love reading mystery, romance, and book club/general fiction.

I love to chat books, but I especially love reading ARC's and reviewing books for authors! I'll browse requests,but also let me know if you're interested in my reviewing your book!

You may be interested in my books - looking for reviews. Both books are on KU.

One is poetry/short stories.
Under The Norway Spruce: Anthologies from the Heart

The other is a suspenseful/romance novel mostly set in Florida.
Cape Haze

Thanks

I'll check them out!

Hi Barbara, Would you be interested in reviewing a recently published book "The Secret Pact" author: Glen Carty?

Hi Glen! I'd love to read and review your book for you, though it may be a week or two before it hits the top of my list. If that's okay with you, please message me!

Hi, Barbara,

I have cozy mysteries (most novella length) I would love more reviews on. Especially the later releases that haven't garnered reviews yet. I do tend to write in order. I don't really do spoilers in later books of whodunit, but I do with character development and changes. It's a tricky balance because I don't want to alienate a new reader who starts with a later book in the series, but I also don't want to be stalled or super repetitive, explaining things over and over and over to the readers who are following me story to story.

My point is, I'd love a review on the first book that doesn't have one but it's #5. So I'll leave it up to you if you'd like to start with #1 or #5 - because if you enjoy the series and would stick with it, I'd love reviews on all of them - :)

Please check them out and if you're interested in any of them, please let me know.

#5 Queen's Quest
#1 Married To Murder

Hey Barbara,
I'd love for you to check out my debut novel, Anarchist Underground!

Hi Barbara.
I'm a self-published first-time author managing the marketing of my book on my own.
My psychological horror, The Station Master of New Brook West, follows Colden as he seeks to escape a tragic past by accepting the job of station master in a remote location. The community's residents and history aren't what they seem and he finds himself drawn into a mystery populated with ancient cemeteries, cryptic historical documents, ghostly apparitions, grim-faced locals, enigmatic companions, and Colden's own paranoia and insecurities in a gloomy environment shrouded in both grey fog and eerie happenings.
Loneliness and solitude are recurring themes throughout the story with strong relatable characters and clever dialogue guiding the reader through a first-person narrative mixed with occasional flashbacks.
I would be most grateful if you would please review my book.
Thank you. Robert..

Robert Cottreau, do you offer physical copies? I'd love to review your book.

Hi Barbara, I am a new author of educational workbooks for kids. These FUN workbooks are perfect for kids learning to read, write, spell, build their vocabulary and math skills. They have ample fun activities, games and puzzles to help build children's engagement. Besides looking for reviewers for my workbook and future workbooks (I am at this time working on a Preschool Math Workbook), I am also looking to connect with other authors, readers/parents, teachers and librarians that have interest in educational workbooks for kids. I would be interested in being a reviewer as well, for this type of genre.

My very first workbook can be found on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D9BFTMTM. I would be happy to send you a pdf of this workbook, if you like.

My Goodreads book page is here: Learn to Read - Sight Words & Phonics Children's Learning Book: For Beginning Readers / Alphabet Tracing, Dot Marker Activity, Handwriting Practice, ... / Fun Reading Activities for Kids Ages 5-8.

Thank you for your time!

If you enjoy reading YA I am looking for more ARC readers for my upcoming YA Suspense Novel coming out 9/5 Colleen Bergquist

Here is a synopsis:

A hidden newspaper article. A teen girl who has an eerie resemblance to a toddler whose kidnapping remains unsolved.

As the only child of a single mother, thirteen-year-old Emma McKay has never attended school, had friends, or been allowed to visit public places. She has moved more times than she can remember, and has no pictures of herself as a child. But it isn’t until she discovers a newspaper article tucked away in a file marked personal that she begins to question who she is and begins to wonder Is she living a secret life?

How far will she go to discover the truth?

With lots of questions and no one she can ask, she decides she must take matters into her own hands and runs away to try to find out the truth.

Alone in a strange city, she finds herself unprepared for the challenges and setbacks she will face as she tries to keep anyone from finding her and seeks help from the police who refuse to believe her.

The choices she makes could alter people’s lives forever

An unexpected ally will step in to help Emma, but will it be in time, or will she be forced to return to the only life she has known with a woman who might not be her mother without getting the answers she needs?

This gripping young adult suspense book can be read by upper elementary-aged children through adults. It is the first book in a trilogy about a girl’s search for her true identity.

If you’d like to read and review it, I will send you a copy through Book Funnel. I appreciate reviews on Goodreads and Amazon so people can discover my book.

Hi Barbara!
I'd be thrilled if you'd consider reading and reviewing my book - Poinsettia Lane. It's a small town, slow burn romance with found family and all the feel good vibes - a perfect read as a palette cleanser or when you're in the mood for something light and easy.

Blurb:
What do accidental stalking, panic attacks, and landscaping have in common?

Everly’s life is exactly as it should be, until her estranged sister comes back to town the same day Asim Jabbar knocks on her door, nearly knocking Everly off her slipper-clad feet and her anxious heart right out of her chest.

After the flirtiest plant delivery of her life, Everly tries to find her Hot Delivery Guy without becoming a stalker, then digs herself into a hole when she enlists his help re-landscaping her yard. An already immaculate yard that does not need any new plants.

Asim agrees, on one condition: that Everly get her perfectly manicured hands dirty and join him. Despite Asim turning her life upside down, Everly can't stop thinking about the muscular, tattooed plant dad.

But when Asim’s world collapses and past scars threaten their future, Everly doesn’t realize all that Asim has sacrificed for her until it’s too late.

Hi, Barbara.
