Love a book? Don't be shy. Spread the word!

Do you look at book ratings before you buy a book? Do you read reviews? We do! And with the release of Crescendo this week we've been paying extra attention to things like ratings and reviews. (YAY so was thrilled to see Crescendo already has 4.46 out of 5 stars on Goodreads! You guys rock!)

So we thought we'd remind everyone how important it is to take a few seconds to give positive ratings/reviews for books you love like Crescendo on sites like Amazon, Goodreads, Barnes and Noble and Borders. It's a great way to support authors and books you love and just might get someone to give your favorite book a try. The better the reviews, the higher the sales, the more books we get to read by those authors. Go spread the love!

We hope all of you who were lucky enough to got your hands on Crescendo this week are enjoying it! Don't forget to stop by Twitter, Facebook or the forum and let us know what you think. We love hearing from you, just be sure to keep it all spoiler free. We're working on a chat so all of us who have read it can gush over all the juicy details. ; ) Thanks!

Spoiler-Free Build Up to CRESCENDO

Recently we have found out just how much spoilers can ruin a book for someone.  This past week at least one review full of spoilers was posted for MOCKINGJAY, the 3rd book in THE HUNGER GAMES Trilogy by Suzanne Collins, before the book was even released! Sadly, it has ruined the book for many.

We want to remind you as we get closer and closer to the release of CRESCENDO, that Becca has put a lot of time into writing an AWESOME book for us!  Out of respect for her we encourage you to re-read this post regarding ARCs and Spoilers we posted back in July.....

Things to keep in mind if you are lucky enough to get an ARC. Remember that the official release is in October, so most people will not be reading it until then. Becca has asked that, when possible, you hold off on posting reviews until SEPTEMBER. And to please, please, please keep them Spoiler FREE. As was the case with HUSH HUSH, this book is gonna keep you turning the pages to find out what is going to happen and we really hope as many people as possible can stay spoiler free :-)

AND we encourage you, as a reader, to be careful about what you read so that you don't accidentally spoil it for yourself.   Here on FallenArchangel we have received permission and worked with both Becca and Simon & Schuster to select any teaser/cookies that are posted.  AND we are careful not to reveal any spoilers. 

We LOVE LOVE LOVE CRESCENDO sooo much, the build up throughout the book is awesome and we'd can't wait for you all to enjoy it.  :-)
