When I was reading Karina Bartow's new book, Forgetting My Way Back to You, I was taken with the very last page where she and her publisher did something I have long advised. That is, let your reader know you would appreciate a review--especially one on Amazon!  I asked for permission to reprint it here for you because it is one of the best I have seen because it offers other possibilities first and the gratitude and wisdom of it show!  Both authors and readers will also love Karina's biography. Nice!
