Hello my Freaky Darlings,
I always get a little nervous whenever I know a review is about to come out. I never know for sure whether or not the reviewer is going to like my book. I’ve been pretty lucky on the review front. Most reviewers have been mature enough to get what Shadows is about. So far I’ve only had one really scathing review and while it stung, I think it said a whole lot more about the reviewer than it did about my writing. But thankfully the review that came out about Shadows this weekend was brilliant! I even got compared to Clive Barker! So, you can imagine who spent the weekend doing a ridiculous little happy dance. To read the review head on over to DaveBrendon’s Fantasy & Sci-Fi Weblog. And once you done that, let me know what you think.
Congratulations on the review, Joan. It was honest with the way it cautioned readers and very easily talked me into adding your novel onto my TBR pile at Goodreads because of its ample praise. It sounds fresh and not at all like some of the stuff that we typically see in the genre. I look forward to reading it.
