I lost count for a moment there ;) Thanks, Brin :)

Had a funny moment there.. confused rounds.. deleted a confusing post. Sorry if anyone read it and got puzzled.. ;)

It's okay E.M -you're allowed.....I am the epitome of 'funny' moments. It keeps us young.

Hi E.M., don't sweat it! Perhaps you can help me sign up for an upcoming Out of This World round.

Heyas Joyce! :) Great to see you here. No groups forming right at the moment but I am sure one will be soon, is how we roll. Keep checking back and I'll try to give you a shout when new rounds are forming.

Thanks, Kady!

Just realised I got my reading out of order - I've just finished Brin's terrific book for which I will post my review tomorrow. I shall now start reading my round 1 book: Dominique's "Purgatory is a Place Too". Sorry about that, Dominique.

No worries - I couldn't get online to find out what order I was meant to be going in when I started my reading, so I'm out of sync too, I just came on to find out which one I'm supposed to have done!

I have just finished reading Erin's enjoyable novel 'The Winners'.
I tend to write a shorter public facing review for Amazon, and a more personal one for my followers/friends on Goodreads, so please be aware that they are different.

Good to go ...

Thanks for your generous and open-hearted review JP.
I'll take notice of your remark about chapter headings...

Frank, please note you are unwise to state on Amazon that you received a free copy in exchange for a review. This is against Amazon's TOS as it implies payment for a review and could result in your review - and others - being taken down.

There is, however, nothing against the TOS in simply saying you were given a copy of the book.

My review of Purgatory is a Place Too
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Thanks Frank! I have noted, and will take action on your concerns about clunky dialogues and long overly educational monologues.

Thanks to everyone who has submitted reviews - all are logged and up to date. And extra thanks to Erin for completing her commitment!

Frank, please also post your reviews to Amazon US and UK so I can mark you as done on that round. if you are not used to posting to an Amazon store that is not your own I would strongly suggest you read this post before you try to do so or you may hit issues.

And a reminder to those who have yet to turn in their first review that the first deadline is 22 Dec, so do work the read and the review into your pre-festive plans if you can - or let me know if you will be late.

Thanks all!
