I have a book that needs review! The title is 3Days. YA Paranormal Romance.

Description: Kara Laquin wanted nothing more than to forget. Forget the past, live in the present, and ignore the future. When a massive solar flare destroys all electronics and throws the country into chaos, Kara is nearly a whole state away from her lost love, Blaine. He can wait only three days before moving on. With access to fuel limited, she must do anything necessary to get to him before he is forced to move on, but society is crumbling around her. Looters and murderers prowl the cities during the day, and something even worse roams at night.

Email me if you would like to review my novella!

I need writers to review the 2nd edition of The Handbook of the Writer Secret Society. Just send me a message with the file type you prefer and I'll send it your way. It's very much appreciated. I get a lot of positive feedback, but not many reviews yet.

I'd love to have my YA/New Adult Sci-Fi book Enigma Black reviwed.

Here is the synopsis:

When she was just seventeen, the course of Celaine Stevens' life was permanently altered with the murders of her father, mother, and brother in one of a series of mysterious and violent explosions occurring across the country. Struggling with picking up the pieces, she's haunted by the memory of that day and her promise of retribution against those responsible for her misery. But just as she seems to be getting her life back on track, an encounter with a mysterious stranger promises her the vengeance she desires, ultimately turning the former target into the assassin.

However, as she soon learns, all choices come with consequences. And the consequence of her choice threatens to destroy the very fabric of her being.

And the link to Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Enigma-Black-eb...

I'd like to offer two of my books that haven't gotten a lot of readers yet, first is Ballad of the Highwayman which is kind of a classic adventure/swashbuckler romance (in the style of Three Musketeers, Zorro, and all that god stuff) set during the Restoration period in England about a highwayman who's looking for the man who betrayed his father and named him a traitor to the crown. I just published it as an e-book so I'm hoping to get more readers for it.

My other one is my newest novel By Blood or By Bond which is set during the Roman era and follows the stories of a Roman centurion, Viggo, and the son of a Celtic chieftain, Caolan. Viggo's son is killed in battle by Caolan's father so Viggo takes Caolan as a slave in retribution. It's more of a family story, coming of age, internal conflict and all that (but I promise it has a happy ending!) There's gladiator fights, corrupt politicians, and lots of brotherly love and camaraderie. There's also a little bit of romance between Caolan and Viggo's niece and an eventual warm father-son relationship between Viggo and Caolan. So if you like that kind of thing, I hope you'll give it a go =)

You can either message me or email me at sirwilliamssquire@gmail.com and let me know if you're interested. I will provide you with a code for a free copy from Smashwords, that way you can get the type of file you prefer.

This looks like a fun book. I wish I had the time right now to devote to reading it, but I've got sooo many books right now to read and also a lot of my time is being devoted to my WIP since my character is very demanding ;) I'll definitely keep it in mind though, because I'd like to read it sometime!

Hey guys ill contact you all tomorrow about setting up a read to review

Hi Jessica,

I'm willing to give out copies of Devotion to anyone that wants to do a review. It's dark fiction, so not likely to everyone's taste.

Black Hull needs reviews! I will gift FREE COPIES of as many episodes as you will read and review. Send me your email address for your gift! Of course I will review whichever work of your own you wish me to. Thanks!

Great! Ill message you the details to set it up.

My fantasy book "In the Dying Eyes of Night" needs reviews and is free all day today and this weekend - spread the word, pretty please!

I would love some reviews for my contemporary fiction/romance, "Morning Star."

The other is titled "Dahlia." It's the first in a series, with a companion novella and the second book scheduled to be published April 26, 2013.

Thanks in advance :)

I would love more reviews! I have 3 books in my Lana Harvey, Reapers Inc. series right now. I would gladly send a free pdf or kindle copy in exchange for goodreads/amazon reviews!

Hi Anna! I read the sample on Kindle and I love it so far! :) I will have to get my hands on this one soon!

I'd love more reviews on my work! It's an anthology of poetry, and that isn't for everyone, so I've been having a difficult time finding new reviewers.

I have both physical copies and .pdf format available for serious reviewers. (5 physical copies; unlimited .pdf files.)

Hi Alayna-Renee, I dabble in a bit of poetry, strictly unpublished, and do enjoy some poetry. I'd be delighted to read your works, and perhaps add a review here, on Smashwords, or from my blog. I know how hard it is promote something that you've poured your soul into, and I can promise to be sympathetic :)

Michelle, that's absolutely sweet of you!! I don't use Smashwords, since my collection is not set up for e-book format, but I'd love a review on here and/or on Amazon if you find the book interesting. :)

If you e-mail me privately on the site, I'll be happy to send a copy over to you. :)

The first book in my series, Graveyard Shift, is FREE today through Friday! If anyone would like to grab it and review it, I would be so very grateful! :) http://www.amazon.com/Graveyard-Shift...

Hi all- I have a book of children's poetry for which I would love some reviews. The book is called In The Sandbox- Poetry for the Child at Heart.

Below is the link to the Goodreads and Amazon profiles for the book, as well as my website. Thanks so much all! ~I can be reached at ryanstockton at outlook dot com~

Hi Ryan, I'll set up an R&R thread later tonight and then I'll send you the link so that you can collect the emails of people who want a copy of it.

Thank you very much Hazel!!!

I have two multi-genre anthologies on Lulu called “Red Blood, White Knuckles, Blue Heart” and “Foe vs. Blade” respectively that I’d like reviews for. I know I said on another message board that there’s nothing wrong with an author not reading his or her reviews, but I don’t want you guys to think that the buzz won’t be appreciated. On the contrary, any sort of attention will help. I must warn you guys in advance that these two anthologies have strong violence and are ideologically sensitive. I’d even go so far as to say they’re rated R for those reasons alone. If you’re still interested, give me your email address and I’ll send you free copies of my books via PDF format. I tried to make e-book versions of them on Lulu, but once you’ve selected one format, it’s like that permanently (I chose paperback). Thanks in advance.

Do you want me to set you up an R&R thread?

That would be wonderful, Hazel. Thanks. :)

Garrison wrote: "That would be wonderful, Hazel. Thanks. :)"

If you can message me the title info (or just paste in in here) and number of copies you're willing to give away, I can set that up for you

(Taken from Lulu.com)

Foe vs. Blade:

“Jared Henry must stand up to his abusive corporate master. An entire navy crew must sail through fire to rescue one of their own. Brian Bentley must overcome an opponent twice his size in a hardcore wrestling match. Three bounty hunters must descend into hell and pop back up smelling like roses. Wade Fish must confront the ghosts of his past to rebuild his shattered life. Lawrence Moody must protect himself and his girlfriend from thuggish radicals. A crew of sadistic mercenaries must survive the hostile landscape of a strange new world. Can you think of a better way to spend a Saturday night? Neither can Garrison Kelly.”

Red Blood, White Knuckles, Blue Heart:

“A homeless soldier's road to revenge, a passionate letter to a heavy metal goddess, a prom queen's quest for freedom, and a cage fighter's need to bruise her victims are only a handful of the many stories you will find in this anthology. By the time you're finished reading, there will be blood everywhere, your knuckles will be white, and your heart may turn blue. Garrison Kelly, on the other hand, will have a sick smile on his face.”

As far as copies go, as long as people are okay with the PDF format, I don’t really have a cap on how many I’m willing to give away. The more, the merrier.
