Nasser Khadjenoori – Hello Georgia, I noticed your review is attached to a wrong book posting on Amazon. In GoodRead there are two postings and one has a wrong author and is not active. Is this something you would need to fix or I would need to reach out to Reedsy support? I would appreciate your help. Thanks, Nasser

4 months agoTHIS BOOK IS NOT 6K WORDS. Uploading false information doesn't allow readers to adequately plan their reading schedule. At 56,000, this is 8.5 times longer than I was expecting. Proofread your books and submissions.
left a comment on PILLYWIGGIN The Lost Shadow Boys5 months ago
5 months agoPlease ensure you are posting accurate information. this book, at 53,000+ words is far longer than the 10,000 you state. As such, I have returned the book as I hadn't planned on reading this length and have a schedule to maintain. If I manage to get ahead and the book is still available , I might circle back, although I suspect it will be unlikely given the deadline.
