Hi Brenda, I'm afraid to give you the score because what if it is really bad? Tell me what a good score is, and if it's close, then I'll reveal. I do know that a "Chicken Soup for the Soul" was one of the winners that year in the same genre, so who can compete with that? The evaluation sheet that comes along with the score was very positive, as if the judge had read the whole book. Words like "encouragement, optimism, recovery, bravely, honestly, hope, effective use of flash back and dialogue keep the reader engaged but not overwhelmed. Unlike many titles of this genre, this book is written from a position of healing." All true, but no win. Brenda, what is RTIR? And how do you go to Amazon to see if the sales spike? I never received a reply from Amazon as to the deletion of the latest review and the 4-6 weeks ordering delay. Does anyone know of an email address that would be appropriate? Thanks Lynn
