You're welcome. The key is to submit early. They do their best to assign.

So I can get this question out to people on my blog. Rebecca is here as Library Reads but she is at ALA right now, as are a lot of people, so they won't reply.

If you want to get responses, write something up that I can post on my blog. Contact info raforall.blogspot.com and click on the logo.

This looks like a rom-com (like all the books) but I don't think it's either rom or com. I think it's gen fic with romantic elements. I haven't read it yet, though. I think the cover is doing everyone a disservice. #collectiondevelopment amzn.to/4cwNJM6
