Book Blurb feedback

Hello all,

Apparently I’ve been part of this group without knowing it for two years. I’ve only ever been over at Patreon for Author Media. Anyway, I hate to ask fro something the first time I enter here, but my tiny feedback team for my blurbs has broken down. I’m launching my Kickstarter soon and feel like some feedback would be better than no feedback.

There are two blurbs because it’s a contemporary women’s fiction/contemporary family drama fiction mini-series (two books). I’m launching them both at the same time on Kickstarter. i wrote them, then used AI to help me and then paid someone on Fiverr to help me, but I still need thumbs up from the writing community. Just for my own confidence, probably.

Anyway, enough rambling.
