Chris won an advance copy of Butterfly Games by Kelly Scarborough and was disappointed to find it a mess of a read. “A good editor would have worked with the author to fix these problems. The fact that they were not addressed, at least in the edition I was sent, is not a good sign.” Have you won a book in a giveaway? (Cannonball Read 18)
