The book about virtual traps : Lost in the virtual world







I am representing my first book, inspired by traps in the virtual world. The Internet is a place where people come to hang out or find love, but what they find is not always what they expected. Even people are behind their computers, their thoughts, and expressions are alive. If you say something ugly, you will not hurt just an Internet user, you will hurt someone's soul. 
Why do people commit suicide because of something on the Internet? You might ruin someone's life by a threat, an insult, or your behavior. This is the age of cold-blooded and ruthless people. The Internet brings an updated version of Darwin's theory: only the strongest survive.




What reviewers said: 

This is the first book by the popular blogger Kristina Gallo, and it’s a well-written, perceptive look at the problems encountered by people on social media. It’s a big subject to take on and won’t be the first to be written. Social media is a relatively new phenomenon and most people are still finding their way around it, discovering both the advantages and the pitfalls. Kristina covers everything from internet dating to fake identities, ‘virtual cheating’, and requests for nude photographs. What she describes will be familiar to many users of Facebook, particularly women. She also takes a good hard look at the many dangers that can befall the gullible and easily manipulated. Like the real world, the internet is a place full of very real dangers. A place where people are not as they seem. A place where people can be unpleasant and duplicitous. All in all, a very interesting read and one I’d recommend to anyone interested in this subject.

This is an intuitive narrative about how much our lives have changed with the development of the internet and social media – it certainly made me reassess my own. It is open and honest, as is the author about herself. It is entertaining and informative with a comprehensive account of the pitfalls we come across and is interspersed with real case studies. I particularly like the tongue-in-cheek humor that surfaced every once in a while, although the subject matter should be taken seriously and the pitfalls noted.


It is not written in the author’s first language but is none-the-less extremely accomplished and adds another dimension to the narrative in that it emphasizes the topics discussed in that we speak on the internet with people from other countries who are not quite so gifted as the author is in our own language.

I found it fascinating as someone who has been subjected to much of what is written, although not responded in quite the same way; it is still intriguing to know just how far some people will go.

This is a young person’s experience of the internet and I suspect a lot of these approaches have been experienced. There is, in fact, a whole raft of other experiences that older people come up against that the author, if not already experienced, will come into contact with, but not for a very long time.

This book is a MUST read for anyone using the internet.

6 signs that your readers don't read your book

Your book is live. That day came, and now you need an audience, a reader's community to show interest. What you need are readers who will read and review your book. The author feel excited like a student who went to the exam and waits for his mark. In this situation, you are not afraid of negative reviews. What is the point? Sometimes, your readers are not reading your book. They pretend they read, instead of this they are scrolling pages and write reviews, thinking they are doing a favor. A real reader will need time to read book. It is not fast eating and swallowing, there is much more in reading books. It demands your time, focus and attention, also understanding.
