I have a superhero novel (not sure if that falls under sci-fi or urban fantasy!) of 97,000 words and I'm looking for a beta-reader. It's been beta-read twice, so I'm just trying to get another perspective and tighten things up a bit. I'd *really* prefer a woman's opinion...I'd like to be sure that the female characters aren't cliches (or caricatures), so I think a female perspective will help.

I'm not worried about grammar/spelling, I'd like an opinion of the overall work: plot holes, boring parts, things that didn't make sense, character consistency, etc. I'm willing to swap beta-reads if desired. If anyone's interested, let me know :)

Update: I think I've found a beta-reader (things work fast around here!), so this thread can be ignored...if circumstances change, I'll update, and thanks to everyone who expressed interest :)

Hi M,

I'll read it. I'm about 90% through my current WIP, so I don't really have anything to swap though.

PM me if you want, and maybe you can send the first few chapters to see how we go.
