Jay Howard (jay_howard) When you receive the book you are reviewing please post a link to the book here on the round thread. That way the author can check you have the correct file, and the mods can check you are all on track OK.

When you post you review on GR post a link to the review here on the round thread so that we can all get to it easily, and again it will make the mods lives easier.

Thank you :)

K.A. Krisko (kakrisko) | 1703 comments Thanks, S. L.

S.L. Vail (slvail) | 10 comments just posted my review of Stolen to Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ

http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

and Amazon (although that one apparently may take 48 hours to go live)


message 6: by K.A. (new)

K.A. Krisko (kakrisko) | 1703 comments Thank you very much, S.L., and I appreciate the posting to Amazon as well.


message 7: by Jay (new)

Jay Howard (jay_howard) Thanks, SL, you're really steaming ahead!


message 8: by Annette (new)

Annette Reynolds | 22 comments This is to let you know I've received Katrina's book and will get to reading momentarily! Thanks all.


message 9: by Jay (new)

Jay Howard (jay_howard) Thanks, Annette :) Is that The Scent of Wild Heather you're reviewing?


message 10: by K.J. (new)

K.J. Joyner (spearcarrier) I got SL's book before I left to go camping. So far so good!

It's her short story collection called "Tiptoe Through Time and Space," which includes "Wild Heather."

I'm sorry! I probably should have included a link (?)...

Thanks!


message 12: by Anne (new)

Anne Carlisle (acarlisle) | 328 comments Yes, that makes for clarity. Now we've got the info, though, so thanks!


message 13: by K.A. (new)

K.A. Krisko (kakrisko) | 1703 comments I was wondering if we could post start & end dates in writing, such as "November 10" or "10 November" rather than using numerical format, since there are people from different countries on the board. I know I'm crass, but I keep reading it as starting October 11 and ending January 12!!!

I agree. I really had to look at the dates to make sure I wasn't reading them wrong.


message 15: by Anne (new)

Anne Carlisle (acarlisle) | 328 comments Good idea, Kathy. I have the same problem


message 16: by Jay (new)

Jay Howard (jay_howard) Oops! sorry, folks - too insular a viewpoint to even think about it when I posted. I'll go through and correct.


message 17: by [deleted user] (new)

Hi there - just checking, I don't have a book to review in Round 2 Group 4? If anyone drops out, I can be your ring-in.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks
Magdalena


message 18: by Anne (new)

Anne Carlisle (acarlisle) | 328 comments It's possible someone is joining this group where the XXX's are. I believe Jay was working on that. (Is it you, Jay, who's joining?) If so, please advise in this thread.


message 19: by [deleted user] (new)

Great - thanks for the update. I'll wait and read if I'm needed...


message 20: by Anne (last edited Nov 07, 2012 05:14PM) (new)

Anne Carlisle (acarlisle) | 328 comments Yes, I just heard from Jay that she's doing the pinch-hit in Group 4 for Round 2. Thanks for volunteering!

P.S. I see now you'll be reviewing Jay, Magdalena. Thanks!


message 21: by Jay (new)

Jay Howard (jay_howard) I've just received Rory's book:
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
I think I've really lucked out - unbroken 5* ratings here so I'm in for quite a ride!

Magdalena has also confirmed receipt of my book:

Jay Howard (jay_howard) Wow indeed, Kathy - Political Poetry? You make it sound fascinating and will no doubt tempt many people to try it (me included!).

K.A. Krisko (kakrisko) | 1703 comments I must say, it is like nothing I've ever read before. Kind of like finding out there is a food out there with a flavor you've never imagined...


message 28: by Jay (new)

Jay Howard (jay_howard) Ah, so you've never tried my cooking... And my husband refuses to try my experiments lol!

Oh dear, I've now gone over my monthly book purchase budget, but I'm a sucker for shorts and after a review like that I just had to have it :)

Thanks to you, Magdalena, I started the working day with a big grin on my face :) You're right in that I still need to refine my technique for certain aspects of relationships, but I get the feeling I'm making progress.

K.A. Krisko (kakrisko) | 1703 comments You're not late. This round ends December 1, so you've squeaked under the line! Thanks for the post...
