The Beginning
Hi! I’m Theresa an
avid reader with too much time on my hands.
I have a passion for writing but enjoy reading so much more. I should also mention I am cheap, sorry authors
I stick to reading the free material from sites like Smashwords and
Wattpad. In order to pay back all you
hard working novelist I decide to start a blog about free eBooks worth reading.
Hence the name of the blog!
Wattpad on the other hand in much different. The material is posted as complete works or
by updating the author’s page per chapter.
Readers are often left hanging waiting for the author to post an
additional chapter, which can be frustrating for both parties. My daughter
Tara, also a book junky, only reads completed books. Reader’s can vote for their favorite authors,
characters, and other categories giving the author a status rating. They also list how many times the material
has been downloaded giving the reader an idea of the books popularity. I really like the interaction between author
and reader but most material is not editedL. This seems to cause
the authors tension between their fans as well. If you can tolerate the errors some
are definitely worth checking out. App available (easier to use than iPhone
app) http://www.wattpad.com/home
How the blog
works, each week I will review a book or short story from either of the two
sites. I will provide detailed information
regarding the book, where
to purchase additional works and give the
book a rank.
1- Purchase the Sequel or more from this
author
2- Definitely worth the time
3- Not bad
4- Pass
*Needs Editing
The
majority of the beginning material will be those that I have read previously,
from the fantasy/ Sci-fi genre and wanted to pass on to you. Once I’ve exhausted those picks I will randomly
pick from multiple genres. I’m a huge
sci-fi/ paranormal fan so I maybe posting more than one review a week. I’ll let your feedback lead my progress!
