    Hello author Rob, this message relates to voting on your book Altered. I voted the highest a 10:on the cover because it is AWESOME! I get lost in that cover! I was seeing one person, then another person and then I saw the brokenness of them both in the picture. Use this cover!! This book is going awe people!

    I previously voted 2, but have just realised I’ve already read this book and number 1 is far more suited to the story than 2. so if not too late I’ll change my vote to 1 🙂

    I like the looks of # 1 the best. I like the quote on # 2 but there’s too much in the picture which doesn’t make the cover of the book stand out. I found # 3 a little too bland.

        I like the ad number 1 the best because it shows the book. Then I like ad 3 next. Same reason, I like the cover of the book embedded in to the ad.

      Number 1 matches the book cover. That’s the one I like.
      Number 2 doesn’t go with the description of the settings in the book. Number 3 would have been better if the book was in front of the person’s chest with the face a hazy, gray area.
      Whichever one you use, the book was an awesome read.

    Like #1 or #3. I see you are now on Litsy, yay! Now post a book and add followers (I’ll stop bugging you). I just recently reviewed One Last Lie for you on there. I have a lot of followers and I am seriously a nobody! People love authors on there (you have 4 followers already). I have thousands and I’m only a reader! Waiting patiently for your next one!

      Thanks so much, Anne. How am I on Litsy? You might’ve told me about it and I joined (I listen to everything you tell me to do!).
      I’m going to go back and check it out. I am on the final chapter of my latest. Will write the Epilogue then get to editor.
      YOU are on my Advanced Reader Copy list, so you, of course, get first dibs. 🙂
      Thank you for posting the review on Litsy. Will check it out as soon as I’m done typing.

        I like #1 but with a couple of changes lol

        1) I like the graphic of the book as the main focus but I like the “grabs you by the throat” quote better than the “intense suspense” one

        2) I think the word “kindle” should be in its orange color that is part of its actual logo (like you have it in ad #2

        Number 1 it’s got that suspense mystery intriguing look about it.. with the slightly misty look with a man hiding behind a rock. What’s he hiding from.
        Number 2 very messy cover. Maybe it’s supposed to look like that but I would think if the covers messy what’s the look like. Mo i will by pass on number 2
        Number 3 says thug putting the book we’re his face should be it being surrounded by a black hoodie says thuggish doesn’t give me any positive vibes…. So I would by pass on…. NUMBER 1 SAYS EVERYTHING I WANT IT TO SAY SUSPENSE. MYSTERY… INTRIGUING

    I LOVE 1…brought back chilling deceptive memories. Like 3. I don’t like 2…it makes the story sound slasher…and it’s not. The word throat is off putting to me. But the hazy effect of 1 and 3 is hauntingly accurate. (My 2 cents!)

    #3 gets my vote. Top Amazon Reviewer is someone I would believe.
    #1 – I don’t like the “Intense Suspense”
    #2 – I’m not sure what a “Voice Reviewer” is. I don’t like audiobooks.

    Hope this helps.

      A VINE VOICE reviewer is someone Amazon chooses to read books and review them – meaning they read a LOT.

            I like No1. The visual of the person in the shadow adds to the person in the trees.
            There is too much visuals in No2. I was not paying any attention to the book but rather my eyes were looking around the background.
            I found No3 to be uninteresting so If I didn’t know you as a really excellent author already I probably wouldn’t bother to explore the book further.
