Please give your opinion of this review. I don't know why the reviewer commented on the "grammar" for goodness sake. She doesn't talk about that in other reviews. Anyway, it started out great and then I felt a little kicked - like she couldn't say all good things for some reason. What do you think?

Hi DK,

I don't like reviewers to mention grammar, but she did say that it was well-written.

I thought your book came out rather well. The reviewer gave the impression that readers might find the book difficult to follow in the opening chapters but, by the halfway stage, the story would pull them in and make them want to read to the end. I think this is something you could say about many great works of literature.

Thanks for your kind remarks. I don't know whether to post it at my web site - or not! Would the review interest you in reading the book? In the beginning, her review sounded like a movie; but it seemed to fall apart as she went forward.

DK
Except for the unnecessary mention about grammar, it was a candid review.
I suggest you post it. How many will listen to the entire review? The fact that it was reviewed is beneficial and positive.

D.K.,

I listened to the review and thought that it sounded very positive. The little bit of negativity was quickly followed by more positive comments. I think you should post it.

I also think you should post it. The negative comment seems minor within the context of the rest of the comments. In and of itself, just having a review like this is a writer's dream, and I think it communicates to prospective readers that your book is worthy of consideration.

Thank you for taking the time to listen to the review. I guess I will post it; I just hoped for something without the negatives.....your comments are very important.
