Noticed you liked The Glass Castle, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a dysfunctional family and a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to learn a little more about the book before you commit:

Aletheia;

I'm sorry you didn't like my book, "A Question of Guilt." I always prefer to please my readers. However, I would point out that I've never read "The Other Boleyn Girl," so we shouldn't be surprised that my book doesn't bear resemblance to Phillipa Gregory's. "A Question of Guilt" actually owes more to "Daughter of Time" by Josephine Tey and the short story "A Jury of Her Peers" by Susan Glaspel. If you thought you were reading a Gregory knockoff, perhaps that's why the story didn't meet your expectations.

By any chance - were you homeschooled?
