I would love to do review swaps and will be happy to purchase books from other authors on this post.

My book, The Viking's Apprentice is $0.99 until July 24th on Amazon.com and Amazn.ca

Hello. I am writing to promote my e-book “Lost at Glassy Sea��, by Germanio Puglio. It is a historical Romance/Fiction. IT IS FREE UNTIL JULY 17th! Here is a short description:

"Lost at Sea" is a novel which follows the lives of a young, modern treasure-hunting couple, as well as the life of a seventeenth-century teenage girl, Emma, who is accidentally deserted by her father while their cargo ship is raided by pirates. Emma is forced to live with a ship full of buccaneers for two months. She finally escapes them and gives birth to a child conceived during her unwilling confinement. Both stories end with the protagonists finding eventual happiness, contentment, and prosperity. Includes 53 chapters, with a description of 17th-century Port Royal. Contains some mature content. Recommended for age 17+.

Here is an excerpt:

“Captain Fontaine rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Coming through the choppy waves were about a dozen canoes. The were dangerously rocking back and forth in the water. The men in the canoes began shooting at his ship. A few of the crew of the Anne-Marie were shot with muskets, and fell into the water. The crew that was still alive quickly pulled up the anchor, so that their ship could flee. As they toiled, the mainsheet and brace were shot away, and the ship turned helplessly into the wind. Feeling that they had no choice, the sailors began to raise a white rag next to the French flag that rippled above them in the rain and wind. The Anne-Marie had surrendered.��

The link to the book is:

I had fun writing it, and it was inspired by my love of pirate stories.

If you want more excerpts, I could give them out!

Hi everyone,

I love this idea! My book is here:

I'm going to go through some of these links and pick three or four to buy in the next few days. If my book description appeals to anyone in particular, post back and let me know and I'll give your books preference. Personally, I love paranormal romance, erotica, fantasy, and thrillers.

Hey, kid, get yourself some professional editing. "The crew that was still alive ..." is grammatical nonsense.

Hey Guys,
I am definitely interested in this! I am truly looking forward to honest reviews as this is my first book. I have 4 others almost finished and now is the time to grow! Be nice! Here's my link for Amazon:

I will buy anybody's book that buys mine as I am open minded and open to almost any genre. Thanks!

I want to read your book, so I put it on my wish list and I will be glad to exchange reviews with you. You have four books from the Baker family saga to choose from:

I just got a terrible review for Deep Trouble because I was way too vocal about the character's saturation in scripture - normal for Presbyterians in that day and age. It was an honest review, so I'm satisfied.

You need an amazon author page and a Facebook page so we can "like" them and keep in touch. You have some good reviews already, but I will be glad to write another for you. I may have to wait till the middle of August before I can buy a copy and read your book, but I'm looking forward to it.

My name is Kait Neese and I am the creator of this wonderful group of ours! I work full time with my publishing firm and work this ŷ������ group as a side project because I really do love the concept of authors being in charge of their own success. However I have a responsibility/duty to my direct authors and my employers to make sure that comes first - which I am sure you can understand.

I have so enjoyed watching this group grow and authors around the world coming together to help one another out. So a big thank you to everyone out there who is taking their success into their own hands and realizing other authors are not the enemy and that working together will take you so much further than working against one another. (Ok ok end of cheesy moment, smile)

I posted a thread a few months ago about what three things matter most to you, as an author, that a publisher could do to help you out. Really help you out. I had some great feedback and really appreciate the comments made! (The post can be found by clicking here: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...)

That being said I noticed a few authors mentioned distribution as something they would like publishers to help out more with. I do quite a bit of traveling to international book fairs and specialize in helping authors and sm/medium sized publishers “go global��.

I will be hosting a webinar on book rights (translation rights) and distribution into China on August 6th at 2:00 pm EST. I wanted to give my appreciation and gratitude to all of the authors in this group for their continued dedication and participation on these threads so I thought this might be a really cool thing to do. (Free of charge of course : )

Please see my latest thread for more information on what we will be discussing and how to sign up here: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

Hope you can make it!

Hello;
My current novel, 'Look Not Unto the Morrow', is on sale for three days for 99 cents, at Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble. If you are willing to buy it and review it, I'll buy and review your book, regardless of the price.

Hi All!

What a great idea! My debut received some harsh reviews because I made the mistake of allowing my husband to do the edits! It didn't take long before I realized this error in judgement and I found a wonderfully talented editor who helped me revamp Descended. Of course not before I offered it for free and had over 5,000 downloads and Descended got hammered by the "grammar police." I guess you could say I like to learn things the hard way.

I can promise you that Descended is is perfect shape now and I am hoping to get some honest reviews that reflect the story as it was intended.

My debut novel, Descended (Fallen Guardian Saga #1) is available for FREE today, 7/31-8/1, on Amazon. If you like YA paranormal romance novels click here:


I'm game for reading and reviewing novels that appeal to me and I'm happy to give an honest review. I will be checking out the links here to see what books are "up my alley." If Descended appeals to anyone here I hope you'll do the same!

What a great way to finish off the Summer. Happy Reading!

Hi everyone,
I have a children's picture book (IE: very short) that I would love to get some reviews on and am more than willing to read buy/read your kindle book in return.

My book, Bosley Goes to the Beach is a wholesome bedtime story with vivid illustrations and an empowering message about our own unique capabilities.

The book is written as a dual-language book and is intended to teach new words and phrases in a foreign language. It is available for $2.99 with translations in French, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian and Japanese at this link:



Please let me know if you'd like to download and review it and I will do the same in return.

Thanks so much, and Thanks Kait!

I'll go over there right now and buy it. Mine is free for Amazon Prime members--Tilted Windmills, and I'd love to have an objective review (so far, they've all been friends...and while I appreciate 5-star reviews, I really need a stranger to read it so I can learn).

I'll be glad to do the same for anyone else too--buy and review mine, I'll buy and review yours!
Thanks.

Debra, I've downloaded it and (if mine is up your alley) I'd appreciate the same (free to Amazon Prime members):

If anyone is interested in a police thriller let me know. Details below. I'm interested in mystery/thriller/suspense/crime in return. Let me know if we are a good match.

George Norris retired from the NYPD as one of the most highly decorated Police Officers in the entire history of the New York City Police Department. Nobody tells a cop story better than a cop. Check out his debut novel, Exceptional Merit.

I will be buying and reviewing your book immediately.
I am wondering how one can change the price or offer it for free on Amazon for a promotional time?

My book, "Utah's Stolen Treasures" is one can easily see, inspired by a "something needs to be said" thing to me. It is personal. But, I think while maybe written for a target audience, with an objective, it has interesting stuff for most anyone. I would appreciate and reciprocate anyone who is interested in taking a look.

Would be very interested in gaining some reviews for my debut novel. Luckily I am also an avid reader so review swaps are absolutely ideal for me. My novel is a hefty read, it is a philosophical travel novel set in Spain, full of thought provoking ideas and landscapes that will make you fall in love with Spain.

Cheers

Hi everybody! This sounds like a great group!

Would love to review swap. My book is a contemporary romance novel. It has some good reviews, but could use more. ESPECIALLY IN THE UK!!!!!



Let me know if you want to "swap!"

Yes. I actually have to books I'd like reviewed. Both are recipes. Let me know your book, and how to do this.

Hello,

I have a couple books I'd like reviewed...one kids meals and snacks, one on smoothies and one children's story. Would anyone like to swap reviews?

Hello Everyone,

Thanks, so much.

Robert,
As promised I did purchase and have just completed reading your book "Look Not Unto The Morrow" My review is has been written and will be posted on your Amazon page shortly.

Having some first hand knowledge of the era and the subject I found it a little haunting, interesting, a little controversial -- in short it is written very well, compelling and recommended as a 5 star "good read."
I to found the government of that time weak and irresponsible but the demonstrations, well intended misdirected. Several atrocities were committed during the time as is the case in all wars. They were not as suggested the par for the war. In my opinion the demonstrations and lack of support by the citizenship that if had been pointed in the right direction could have ended the war sooner, saving hundreds of thousands of fellow humans regardless of countries serving. What a sad time that was for the human race. Thanks for the read. Gene

This would be a good thing for me as I truly don't know what the hell I'm doing. I would love to swap reviews or help another author in any way I can. You can find my book, RealAdviceForTheUnemployed, at:

I just joined goodreads and this group and I swear to God, I don't know how to manipulate anything yet to get the essentials up and running. I'm not even sure I'm actually replying to the right person in the right way. But I promise I will get this Author's Page you speak of, and I WILL take a look and review your book. As for the broke thing, ain't we all? We DO suffer for our art, don't we? I do have a facebook page and a blog actually. You can check me out further at:

After you get nan author page, post that and your link to your facebook page here and we can give you "like"s to help give you coverage.

It was brought to my attention that I, erroneously, previously posted this on the swapping likes discussion. Sorry, it should have been posted here where swapping reviews are discussed.


" I have been enjoying exchanging books to read and review. I think the opportunities for us to help each other here are worthwhile.

My book, the paperback edition anyway is kind of pricy I questioned my publisher about that but because I insisted on the pictures he said it couldn't be done for less. That is why I added the E-book version which does have a reasonable price 9.99. I would very much like to continue sharing books and reviews and likes with anyone interested:

I'm looking for nine more authors (to reach 20) to do an author swap. We're all making sure our price is at .99 on a certain day- then we buy one another's books. Throwing in a few ratings and reviews too. Twenty sales in one day will move you up in the rankings which is great exposure! If interested, please email me ASAP.

My book's always $0.99. I'd like to jump in on this.

Thanks for the advice, Allison! I'm creating an Author's page now (how did I miss doing this before?).

Thanks, Greg. I'll be picking up/reading your book this afternoon.

Hey, all. I'd be super excited to get in on the review swap. My only problem is that my publisher controls the pricing. It's set at $2.99.
If you have a book blog/review site/huge twitter feed that expands the coverage, I would be willing to gift you the eBook through Amazon. I'd just need an email address.

We have room for three more authors for the mass author swap (20 authors)!! We're all making sure our price is at .99 on a certain day- then we buy one another's books. Throwing in a few ratings and reviews too. Twenty sales in one day will move you up in the rankings which is great exposure! If interested, please email me ASAP.

I will if you're willing to check mine out before you agree to swap, so I'll know if you are prepared to review a christian historical. You need an amazon author page so we can "like" it and give you some coverage.

If you post something on this thread you'll usually get something from me, and I've got 12 books for you to choose from in return.

I'd love to do a book swap for reviews! I cannot control my price though as the publisher has control. My book is a children's storybook. Any other children's authors on here? Here is the link.
