Just when you thought it was over..
Fifteen months have passed since e-luv came out and it's now vanished from the shops and languishing in the lower 200,000s on Amazon.

I loved your book :) it deserves to be top 10! it kept me up until 3am! glued to every word and page! so thank you for entertaining me with amusement :) x
Thank you, Gina. I like you a lot.
Word of mouth - notoriously slow but it can only happen once you have a gen-u-ine published book. And weirdly, it does seem to go in flurries so maybe karma gets a look in too ...

I absolutely loved it. Consumed it in one sitting, found it funny, warm, insightful, very clever. And loved the ending.
Hi, it evidence that books have a life after they are sold and that the swap circuit and blog reviews are generating interest by creating word of mouth. I have noticed that publishers have now started to send newly released books out to blogers(I have had three given to me)as part of a marketing ploy
