Critics Review
“Jeff Gerke’s The Irresistible Novel encourages authors to break from restrictive “rules” in pursuit of the true goal–to engage one’s readers from beginning to end. Chapters explore different points of view on everything from nuances of grammar (and why their paralyzing rules should not always be strictly obeyed) to mapping a story path with respect to engaging the reader’s brain chemistry.” –Midwest Book Review
