Mel and all the other judges, thank you so much for all you do to give indie books visibility! I’m honored to be part of Mel’s Takeover, and I’m so glad you guys enjoyed Master of the Void. There were so many great books this year, and it was fun to see everything play out. I’m working hard on finishing up book two in the series, so I hope you’ll stay tuned!

@MelLenoreReads 17 дней назад

Ahhh! So glad to get to read Master of the Void. I'm excited for book 2

Loved seeing the official results, thanks for putting in all the hard work to put this together!! So fun to see the differences, and lovely to see Master of the Void getting some well-deserved love! 🤩

@MelLenoreReads 19 дней назад

Thanks for all the work you do on the official side! And yes it’s so fun! I love that we can have such differing opinions so all the books get love

I am late but loved participating in Mels Takeover this year. Love to help spotlight some indies so they can get in the right hands!

@MelLenoreReads 17 дней назад

Yes yes!!

I enjoyed reading all the finalists and seeing everyone’s differing opinion. For me, I loved Master of the Void too! It was one of my favorites. I was shocked to see it in last place in the official competition!

@MelLenoreReads 19 дней назад

I know! I think the official judges definitely leaned more cozy

This was so much fun! Thank you for putting all of this together. It's very encouraging, honestly, that the two SPFBOs had such different outcomes (and yet both did a great job drawing attention to the finalists).

@MelLenoreReads 17 дней назад

I love that it was so different. So many readers, so many tastes

I hope you do the takeover again-I really enjoy getting the extra SPFBO content. It’s crazy to me that I’d never even heard of SPFBO and now follow it so closely (obsessively?) since learning about it the first time Cassidy mentioned it on her channel. I agree it’s so fun seeing the different thoughts on the same set of books and how books can work so well for some and not for others. My thoughts were a nice between the official and Mel’s takeover but def leaned closer to the Mel’s Takeover ratings overall.

@MelLenoreReads 19 дней назад

Ah I love hearing how everyone else looked! I can’t wait to see how 10 turns out

@MariaMightReadThat 14 дней назад

It's been so interesting to follow along and see how different the rankings came out. Congrats to both the official and takeover winners! I totally expected you in the meanie group 😂 Such a fun stat

@MelLenoreReads 14 дней назад

Right? I expected me too 😂

@tammyd4208 20 дней назад

It was fun to follow along this year, when does the next SPFBO start? I love how y’all are giving visibility to new authors. 🎉

@MelLenoreReads 20 дней назад

I've been trying to get more into indie fantasy and sci fi this year and all the videos about this competition really helped! i cant wait to discover more, i have so many on my wishlist now😊

@MelLenoreReads 17 дней назад

Yay! I’m glad you found some to try out!

@KristinKravesBooks 20 дней назад

So interesting to see the differences and similarities between the official rankings and yours! 🌟

@MelLenoreReads 20 дней назад

I was amazed how different it was

@megan3407 20 дней назад

I loved following the official contest’s updates and yours. I hope if you don’t do it next year that maybe someone else in the group can take it over. ❤ 🌟

@MelLenoreReads 20 дней назад

I think something will happen for sure!

@CurrentChapter 20 дней назад

This was a lot of fun! I'm already so curious to see what the finalists will be for next year 🤩✨⭐

@MelLenoreReads 20 дней назад

Me too!

@ourreadinghour 20 дней назад

Wow, I love how different the ratings were! Personally, I didn't enjoy Master of the Void pretty much the entire time reading but thought it came together very nicely at the end and will probably keep reading the series. I also thought Spindle Manor would have been GREAT as a movie. It gave me Knives Out and Clue vibes but felt a little too slapstick for a book. I think my favorite was also A Rival Most Vial! I immediately read all the bonus content and novellas that the author had published.

@MelLenoreReads 20 дней назад

Lots of love for a rival most vial! I can see how people would really enjoy that one

@kartik3719 20 дней назад

I loved Master of the Void! It just felt so adventurous and fun and I absolutely ate up the angsty romance and love triangle in it

@MelLenoreReads 20 дней назад

I'm so glad you enjoyed!

@spicykatzreads 20 дней назад

Loved participating in this!! and really enjoyed seeing the difference between Mel’s takeover and the official competition 😊 a rival most vial is def on my fav of the year loved it so much!!😭

Love hearing about all of the Mel's Takeover's stats. The differences between your group and the official group just goes to show that reading is so subjective.

@MelLenoreReads 20 дней назад

Right? So wild. But I love the differences
