Thanks, Scott.

FYI you still have this marked on GR as 'currently reading' so it isn't showing your star-rating. Please make sure you update that to 'read' TY

Trish

Thanks. I did do the "Date Finished" when I posted it. I edited it a few days later to correct a typo, so maybe that threw off the "Date Finished." I have since then edited it again to add the "Date Finished" date.

I decided not to give it a star rating. Amazon, however, forces you to give one, so I did.

Sorry, Scott, my bad - the 'currently reading' is because I'm currently reading it. Sorry for the confusion.

Why would you not give the book a star rating? I'm checking with E.M. but I believe the implied agreement by participating in these groups is that you include a star rating with your review. PM me if you'd rather not reply to that question on this thread.

Thanks.

Trish

I thought the important thing was the depth and breadth of the review containing specific and constructive feedback, not the star rating which is just a number. I'll wait for E.M. to get back to us.

As implied by its absence, I didn't want the star rating to drag down the author's overall average. Normally I do post a star rating, especially for well-established authors who got published by a traditional publishing house.

E.M. advised that you should put the star rating up.

Thanks.

Okay, will do!

Hi all,

Have a great weekend (a long one if you are in the US)

Thanks.

Trish

https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... I’m waiting for amazon to update

That’s my round two review for Duplicity of Power

Thank you for the review, Franca!

I’m very close to posting my round one but have been traveling and the weather hasn’t allowed me the down time for work

Thanks, Franca. Pop the Zon one up whenever it decides to turn up.

Thanks for the update, Stephanie.

I feel your pain - the weather has been a bear here.

As long as everyone completes (and receives) four reviews by the end of the rounds, I'm good. I do like to check in so things don't slide completely.

Good luck and I hope things calm down for you soon.

Trish

Finished review for round one - it’s posted here and I will post to Amazon tonight from hotel (on phone on interstate again today) links to come

Hi all,

Don't forget round 2 reviews were due yesterday (Feb. 28th)

Also, if you are following up with Amazon links for me after you posted the GR links please don't edit your first post - I don't get an email advising me of edits, so I don't see them.

Thanks.

Trish
