News... News>>> Important

 I have reached a heartbreaking decision. Starting today I will NOT accept any more books for review. I will continue to work on the books I have. If you'd rather I didn't please send me an email and I will delete the copy you sent me or send the books back. No one but me has access to the books sent for review, so there isn't a need to worry someone else will have them. It's been 11 years of reading and reviewing for authors all over the world. I have given 110% to my blog and the authors. I've always posted my reviews in more places than anyone else. Right now it's right at 30 places. It takes a lot of time to read the book, then write the review and make sure it gets posted on 30 different sites.

I thought it was appreciated but I'm not so sure any more. Lately I'll have one day of 300 views on my blog, the next 3. I review for enough authors to have a fairly steady readership, but after 11 yrs, it's a pitiful one. I've done all this work for free. I have never charged anyone for the hours and hours it takes to do this work.
Yes, I enjoy the work. Yes, it's fun for me. Recently though it's been tons more work. When I started the blog, it was to help get authors newest read out to the public. It was to share my love of reading. I'm not sure it makes a difference. I know on Amazon, which by the way, I fought for weeks with Jeff Bezos and his staff to be allowed to post for my authors, people appreciated my reviews because I have over 1,000 Yes the review helped votes.
This is where I stand as of today. I can't see wasting my time reviewing if people don't care. Enjoy the weekend and next week. If you have anything to say, please email me. Thanks. macladie25@yahoo.com
