I sent an email. Thanks for posting. I can definitely use more reviews. Just out of curiosity, are their specific criteria for violence, sex or drug references? 1-10 seems subjective to me. I tried to be as specific in my description as I could.
Agreed. Thank you for posting. I specified categories thusly: Explicit sex vs. Implied or indirect sex content, and tried to remember what my books had in them. I don't do gratuitous usually, because I want my family reading my stuff, but I have a few adult themes and ideas still.
Dear OpenBookSociety,Your I. D. Page here at Goodreads lists you "Female; the United States."
Is there other source we can go to to decide if the OpenBookSociety would be an appropriate venue for our books?
I, for one, don't want to shock (or melt) anyone out of her girdle.

I'll be sending an email as well. My book launches November 30th, and I'm planning a couple of different tours. I've been on the hunt for reviews as well. Thanks!
I sent an email as well. This is an awesome opportunity!
@ Nobody.Well, great. Since Jack, Dejana and H. L. all failed to address their most recent answers, we can all sit back and wonder....

Sent an email for my collection of short stories! Let me know if you want me to email you a link for a free copy.http://www.amazon.com/Three-Moons-Rea...
That looks like a great site! Maybe I'll submit.
Great idea! Thanks, I'll keep this in mind for when my full novel debuts. Currently what is out, is a five chapter preview.

Sorry for the delay in response...I didn't realize anybody had responded as I don't get to go to the goodreads groups as often as I like :(
Our profile only says female from the United States because the staff member who set up the account is female from the United States. Feel free to check out our site to decide if we are a good outlet for your work or not. Http//www.openbooksociety.com

The Open Book Society reviewed my legal mystery, The Past Never Ends, interviewed me, and hosted a giveaway. It was all handled very professionally and I was pleased with the experience.Jackson Burnett

I sent an email as well. Thanks for doing this. By the way, is there a fee associated with having you review our works? I forgot to ask that.
An email has been sent. Thank you for at least considering my work!
