Has anyone heard if we'll be asked to review books again this year. Hope so as I've thoroughly enjoyed discovering new authors....to me. Happy and healthy 2016 everyone. |

I hope so too but I'm not holding my breath. The last few months have been very hit and miss. |

One way round that would be to only send books to people who have reviewed those already sent. |

That's a good idea GlossieAnn, I have reviewed what I have read except for the one about Toby, I wrote it and lost it and had passed the book on to a friend, and could not remember some of the characters named. |

I think they have given up now, ages since anything happened. |

Probably only a handful of members reviewed the books. Some people said they had others to read first. If Penguin thought they'd get free advertising or recommendations, it didn't work. |

I think it did work in that it introduced many of us to new authors so that's got to be a positive. I hope it starts up again as I thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of a new author. |
