Hywelda your book is great but I can't review it because I think your reading test is out of whack with the correct answers.

First of all the first answer is like a trick question as the computer is referred to by jess as Jaii and then officially as JA II.

And and least one of the other questions don't seem to be fixed right either .. kerri, jon, aquarius 7, medical .. it's a shame as though really enjoyed and thought was a very good read I don't think people that may be assigned it are going to be able to review it. Unless I've gone crazy and it's just me ..

I read this after reading the opening but had a problem reviewing questions too, thought the first question was a little ambiguous .. good news is I thought really good

Hi Murrayhurray Ethelredthebrave

Sorry if my questions caused confusion! I actually thought I'd made the first one a bit easy, but perhaps I'm so close to my story it just seemed like that. Not sure about the others, as I stupidly didn't keep a copy, but I thought they made sense, but I apologise if I mucked up here. I would go back and amend them, but I obviously can't now. If I can re-upload using another credit I'll do that - dunno, perhaps Assignment Robot could help me here?

Thanks for pointing this out and I'm really glad you liked it despite that!

Did someone whistle for a dog?

We'll see whether it was an aberration or whether any other readers have difficulities. If anyone else has any probs reviewing please let us know.

Good to see it's being enjoyed though.

If you remove the chapters straight away then those with the book on their list may get a bit confused. We'll see what happens next .. will keep you posted and if you can keep us posted.

Have a great weekend all.

What a good dog!

Thanks Assignment Robot - I'll do as you suggest and 'lie low' for a bit before re-submitting.

At least I've learnt that I shouldn't try to make the questions too hard - it's not a school exam, after all!

Thanks again and have a good weekend yourself.

Hi Lyn

Good morning. Unfortunately everyone is failing your reading test - a first, but don't worry about it! We've locked the current version out from being assigned - as members are doing the reading but not getting a reading credit as they're not able to pass the test - but you can upload it again and reset your test. Just make it's not too hard, but not too easy.

Look forward to see Starquest make her voyage again
