OT: Need test readers for book chapters

This is completely OT, but I am looking for some test readers to read the first 60 pages (paperback sized pages) in a book that is being looked at for publication. It's a historical fiction novel. I need about 5 folks who would be willing to read the pages within about 3 weeks and give me some honest feedback. Since you all are the kind of folks I'm targeting, I'd thought I'd ask here. If you're interested, please PM me and I can give you a plot/story synopsis.

Sure, I'd be happy too. I am a AVID reader. I used to read the transcripts from sermons @ NPCC and edit them for publication ( not as detailed just taking out duplicate words and removing "and."

Also had a local author in my neighborhood b4 moving and I would preview her books b4 she sent to publisher.

Just PM what info you need from me. (address etc)

I'm in! I am a huge historical fiction fan and I read very quickly so it sounds easily done. PM me for my email if you want.

I'll PM you, sounds like fun, and definately more interesting than the diet books I've been reading lately.
