Thanks, Tanjilisa. The link to your review is this one:

Now I'm jealous, Tanjlisa - I'd offered to review Kathryn's book if no-one else offered to step in!

Thanks Tanjliss :D For the review and being so prompt.

Lol. Sorry, Jay! lol.

No problem, Kathryn! It was a real page-turner.

Alexes, here's my review of Khe, which is an impressive novel:

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

Alexes, I will post it on my Blog as of Nov. 1, if that's okay with you. I will also post it on Amazon for you. Here's my blog link:

Steve, here is my review of The Wolf Crying to be Heard.

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

Amazon and Amazon.uk are "processing" the review.

Thank you, Hock, and Anne :)

Thanks, Anne. It would be great if you posted the review on your blog.

My review of Marie-Anne's wonderful book is here http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/... - and is being processes on Amazon.

Kathryn, thank you so much. You know, it seems obvious now but it hadn't occurred to me to describe the relationships as power struggles but you are right, that is what they are!

Amazon rejected the original review--I resubmitted without the references to the blacks and the Jew and it has been approved--

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1480...

That's interesting, Hock - I was totally unaware of censorship of the reviews there.

Very interesting. Well, another good reason we exist...the uncensored review!

Hi, it looks like I will be the "XXXX" noted above who will review Anne's work in this round...

I've never been rated quadruple-X before.

Well, wait until you read the book! Just kidding...

Hey, Kathy, does that also mean you will have your book reviewed in the XXXX spot? Or are you just filling in for the review part? I was about the edit the group info and wanted to make sure I had it straight.

Jay wrote: "That's interesting, Hock - I was totally unaware of censorship of the reviews there."

It was amazing: the novel criticizes those who discriminated against "darkies" and "niggers" and I mentioned it in the review. I took the sentence out and decided that Jews should be taken out also.... It could have been a review of Huckleberry Finn!

Anne, I think I'm just doing the review, but if Sandra is feeling bereft of books, she can review mine!

Just a note that I received and am starting "Home Schooling: The Fire Night Ball" by Anne Carlisle:

Home Schooling: The Fire Night Ball

Thanks, Kathy! Music to any author's ears...

OK, sure thing...I'll leave it up to Sandra to chime in here if she wants to.

I just now realized that Sandra can't review you, since you just reviewed her. Darn!

No, that was a different Sandra. This is Sandra de Helen, the other one is Sandra Rector. Not confusing, is it?

OMG...

This is my review of Neel's 'Out of Context'
http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/... - thanks for a fun read

Thank you for the review, Marie-Anne - I'm probably going to read it a million times today - more or less ;)

I can't see it on my book's page, though? http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...

Hi Neel, I just clicked on your link and there it was! I haven't worked out why some reviews show up over others with goodreads but hopefully others can see it on your page. I put it on Amazon.com and uk too.

Just posted my review of Anne's "Home Schooling: The Fire Night Ball":

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

I will post it on Amazon later & let me know if there are other places you'd like it posted.

Kathy, thank you thank you! I'm thrilled by your review! So helpful, tactful, and encouraging.
BTW, I'm ready with the next one, just undecided on where to publish. It's longer, heavier on the historical and on the paranormal, and the central story is a VERY free adaptation of Thomas Hardy's Return of the Native.
Would most appreciate your posting your review on my Nook link as well. Here it is.

XO
Anne

Got it - will post to Amazon, Amazon U.K., & B&N. Looking forward to the next one!

I'm not on Amazon UK...haven't figured out how to do that yet. Thanks a million!

Just a note: I was only able to post the review to the paperback edition in amazon.co.uk - wouldn't let me access kindle version for some reason.

Neel missed out on a review in round 1 due to Elizabeth dropping out, so I've done one. Here's the link:

I'm glad I offered :)
