As I was attracted to this site by the thought that there were people out there who genuinely wanted to review books, I am now a little bemused. I have a novel-a thriller- I would like reviewed but all of the subjects under discussion seem to be about other things!
Are there any people/members left who would just like to read a good story and pass comment. I still do; am I alone?

The whole reason I started writing book reviews is because I enjoy doing exactly that - reading a good story and passing comment. Heck, I have my friend's first book winging it's way to me in the post as I type. I have another 11 books lined up that I thought sounded good and I can't wait to get into to while away my evenings... so no, you're not alone.
Also, I love a good thriller and would love to review but I'm afraid of disappointing you with waiting because of the aforementioned book pile... I wouldn't be able to get around to reading it until at least mid-october :(

The first two teaser chapters and the media kit are in the links below. If you're interested please let me know.
Russell

Permalink Reply by jack everett on September 12, 2011 at 1:30pm I read your review and left you a comment, Melissa. Do you only read YA novels because it you do I have one entitled Merlin's Kin I can let you have or would you be prepared to try a thriller?
I wasn't too sure what you meant by follow but my Twitter name is Jack_59 and I am on Facebook.

Well, I'm afraid I can't help with the review (I only review romances), but I can give you some suggestions and bump you on on the forum. :)
There are lots of people here who love to do reviews. I would suggest joining groups that would fit your book and leaving posts there asking for reviewers. Giving a short synopsis is helpful too in finding reviewers since they can get a feel of the book. Another thought is that there are several people here who can't read e-books, so you might want to consider sending out a a few print copies if they are available. (I don't know if it's e-book only or not).
Don't get discouraged. This site covers a lot of different people from authors needing reviews, to authors needing help, to reviewers needing suggestions, etc. There are a lot of different kinds of discussions. Good luck with your book!
I just received my first review for my third book that just came out. Check it out, if you like.
