The book sounds exciting with everything, in my opinion, that could keep the reader glued to the pages of the book till the very end: disappearance, murder, blackmail, life long secrets. It will the interesting to read the book. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

What an illuminating review! It seems the plot of the story has a nice idea but lacks consistency. I looked at the cover, and I wasn't impressed either. Based on your review, I think this book needs some professional editing. Also, the cover design needs some work too.

While this book sounds like it could be used for educational purposes it sounds like it has quite a few issues, some that obviously should have been caught sooner. I'm on the fence as to whether I should pursue this book or not. For now, I'm going to pass. Maybe once it's been looked over again and properly edited I'll take a second look.

Any considerations I had about reading to short stop once I saw Average Reviewer Rating. After reading reviews I understand why it's so low and as I am not native English it is quite possible important to me that book not only has good plot, but is well written as well.

I read the book too. The number of errors were so many that it interfered with my reading. You did such a good job with the review, checking even the page numbers!

Latest Review: The Artificial Intelligence Rights and Responsibilities Act” by Alton Booth

Post by Jorge Leon Salazar »

A fictional book that tells about the life of a woman and her loved ones on topics such as marriage, relationships, education, life's challenges. It also addresses issues associated with pedophilia. Oriented to the adult audience due to the strong themes. It seems like a good option.

This sounds like a promising story but the page numbering issue is something I don't think I'll be able to get over.

The book is definitely an interesting one with a premise in not only romance but also education. I might just read it in future. Congratulations on BOTD. Thanks for the epic review.

Wow.
Such a unique book possessing all this avoidable errors.
And it's genre is my type of books, but the errors and odd page numbering might just be a total put off for me.
I'm glad you scaled through and gave an honest review.
Congrats.
