Chelsea (chelc13) | 193 comments So I'm reading Defy the Dark, which is an anthology and I've read books by two of the authors, but not the rest. Would that mean that I am unable to count this book, even though 15 of the authors are new to me - do any of you know?


message 30: by Lucy (new)

Lucy | 82 comments I think if the majority of them are new authors then it should count.

Catia Rodrigues (catiamrodriguesauthor) Yes, I agree. =)

Omg I totally missed your notifications on goodreads, there's so many. Anyway, hi!


message 44: by Catia (new)

Catia Rodrigues (catiamrodriguesauthor) Hi! No prob... ;) i've been pointed out some weaknesses of my book regarding the writing flow and phraseology. After some...less pleasant conversation with my previous editor I need a GOOD copyeditor asap and some beta-readers for the before and after edition... :/


message 45: by [deleted user] (new)

@Catia At first I thought there was something wrong with your physical copy of the books you're reading, but no, YOU'RE WRITING A BOOK!! Oh my god, that is so cool. What is it about?


message 46: by Catia (new)

Catia Rodrigues (catiamrodriguesauthor) YA Paranormal Romance... :X

Sorry I haven't been on much... life of a biology major :(

Anyways, I was able to finish Defy the Dark, and don't know what I will start next... Possibly Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake if anyone is interested to buddy read?
