I am an author too,working on my novel currently.
And you know over the few months,I have not found too many books that intrigue me.
I mean can you imagine I spent the last night entirety reading your book.
And finished it right now.
And I hadn't voted yet,was too invested in the story to.But I would surely vote now,having read it.I know what acknowledgement means for an author.The reassurance we get from the readers is what acts as a fuel to write.
You are an amazing author,and I am not saying this to reassure you,cause Brooo,you are just simply great.
Keep thriving...
