Hi, All:

I need a Beta reader for my YA romance (total 104,000 words). The book is finished and has been pretty thoroughly edited. I've had some agent interest and they think the writing and characterization is strong. I have had the comment that some scenes too closely parallel Stephanie Meyer's Twilight (completely unintentionally) though I don't have vampires in my story. Would someone who has read Twilight be willing to read my novel and point out scenes like this? I'm too close to the work and can't see the forest for the trees. I'm willing to do a trade.

Thanks!
