Readers

Since in my previous post I talked about how the book is doing in other countries, I should probably take a few minutes and mention readers’ sites like Goodreads and Reedsy Discovery. Both of my recent books are doing well on Goodreads. In fact, yesterday three readers gave Next Time five-star ratings. Small sample size, but right now the book’s average is 4.92. It’s gratifying to see people who take the time to register on a readers’ website rating the book so high. Reedsy gets less traffic, at least in my experience, and it works a little differently with Upvotes alongside reviews. Next Time was upvoted enough to be featured by Reedsy a few weeks ago, but the number of overall reviews is a lot lower than Goodreads. First received no reader reviews on Reedsy and a middling site review, and I almost didn’t send Next Time to them. However, it worked out and Next Time became a must-read. Both sites are worth checking out and finding what bibliophiles say about my books.
