If you're a fairly quick reader and you would like a review copy of my novel, Playing with the Moon, short-listed for the World Book Day 'Book to talk about 2008', I have some review copies to post out.

I only ask: that you read it and pass it on to at least one other person before the end of the month; and:

that you leave a comment on the site below, again before the end of this month, and, if you enjoyed the book, think about voting for me on the same site. Obviously if you don't enjoy it please don't vote for me (though the comments would be useful) but pass the book on anyway. I'm trying to get new readers (and votes if possible) before voting stops at the beginning of March.

I'm not on CAT but anyone interested can email me on grheliz AT gmail.com

Here's the link I mentioned above, which has more information about my novel and why it's been shortlisted for the award:

Idris, will post to you on Monday

Got my book today Eliza. First impressions are good. I like the cover etc. Will read it over the next few days and then send it on to Marlady.

Wisteria · 09/02/2008 15:26

I'll join in if you still want extra reviewers.

Eliza2 · 09/02/2008 15:34

I'm afraid all my review copies plus the extras I bought in have all gone, Wisteria! So sorry. If I can persuade the publisher to stump up more I'll let you know. XX

Just to remind anyone who's reviewing this is the World Book Day website link for votes and reviews. Voting closes at the beginning of March.

filthymindedvixen · 12/02/2008 17:39

Idris - posted to you today - perhaps you could pass it on to Wisteria when you have finished it? Or would Eliza perfer that some of us actually start, erm, buying her fab book?!

wheelybug · 12/02/2008 17:43

Well, seeing as you said please

Honestly it's like talking to my three year old...

(email on the way)

wheelybug · 19/02/2008 11:12

Oi Lapin - there was a queue around here . But seeing as its you, can you send it on to me afterwards (I am taking ages on a biog so I can wait !).

Although, I may pop into smiths in a mo and see if they have it (its out in Paperback nwo isn't it ???) and swell Eliza's royalties by a couple of pence. Will email you Lapin if I don't get it.

As you were .
