The writer of it said in the Mobileread forum that he <i>nearly</i> gave it four stars, but has rigid rating criteria he sticks to.<br /><br />He also said, 'as I was up all night reading it, I can confirm that the story is pretty gripping' and one can't ask for more than that.<br /><br />I've had 182 downloads so far; and I do know people are much more likely to read books they've paid for. But I hope a proportion of the downloaders will get drawn into <i>Remix</i>.Lexihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14404818053292364819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6250078125607062288.post-82748012455637612022010-08-09T17:36:02.123+01:002010-08-09T17:36:02.123+01:00The three star review you received is, at least to...The three star review you received is, at least to my mind, an excellent bit of feedback and really, a very positive thumbs up for Remix. Those are the sorts of reviews I like, the ones where the reader cares enough to be specific, obviously read the entire book with some attention, and is discerning enough to place what he/she really thinks is a fair rating. After all, how many books are there in the universe that actually deserve five out of five stars? Not many. And time is usually needed in order for that sort of appraisal to really be valid.<br /><br />One hundred and twelve and climbing. Keep in mind that many of these folks will be downloading and tucking it away in their TBR file. So don't expect anywhere near 112 reviews. I have done some asking around on sites such as mobileread, kindleboards and nookboards and most of the folks who responded said that they often as not will pick up a "limited offer" free book just to get it free, but it might be weeks, months or never before they actually read it. It's a chance one takes, but I think it's worth it to get those few readers who like the book and often help get the word out that it is worth the investment of a bit of money. That word of mouth advertising is what you are really going for here.Alan Hutchesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03880999192085868408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6250078125607062288.post-66785458566361389552010-08-08T20:37:14.406+01:002010-08-08T20:37:14.406+01:00112...
