Beta Readers Wanted

Hi! If I sent you this link, it’s because I’m looking for help in the editing stages of my book, and I think you might have valuable feedback.

To help understand the kind of help I need, here’s an overview of how I’m building my novel:

    selfEdit --> devEdit["4 · Developmental Editing"]

    devEdit --> revise

As a Beta Reader, you’re pretty early in the process. At this stage I have questions like:

• Where were you excited to read more in the book?
• Where were you bored or tempted to not finish?
• Which character did you like most?
• Which character did you like least?
• Were there places where a character’s actions or motivations did not make sense, even for them?
