REVIEWS
One of the things that this blog is dedicated to the most is reviewing books and/or other products. All reviews on this blog are my own honest opinion and rating. If you are reading this, I can only assume you are considering me to review your book, and I’m very appreciative!
Please ensure you read my review policy below before contacting me. This will tell you everything you need to know about my format and genre preferences etc. If you still have questions after reading this, please feel free to contact me via email or this contact form.
BOOK REVIEWS
I am currently accepting ARCs (Advanced Readers Copy) and published books. I do accept eBooks, but very rarely as I don’t have an eReader, Kindle or Nook of any kind. But I could potentially work something out via the Kindle app or iBooks on my iPad. However, I would much prefer physical copies.
Genre
I accept a variety of genre that are listed below (in no particular order). If you believe that the book you wish to send does not fit in any genre listed below, then I will need to read the book synopsis before deciding if I accept it or not.
I do accept:
• Fantasy
• High Fantasy
• Urban Fantasy
• Historical Fiction
• Fairytale/Myth Retellings
• Adventure/Action
• Dystopian
• Science Fiction (Sci-Fi)
• Dystopian
• Suspense/Thriller
• Paranormal
• Contemporary
• Adult/New Adult/Young Adult
I do not accept:
• Indie/Self published (I may begin accepting these again soon)
• Non-Fiction
• Erotica
• Non-Fiction
• Religious Fiction
These genre preferences are subject to change, but currently these are what I am currently preferring.
My Reviews
As well as reviewing the book, a picture will be posted to my Instagram (Bookstagram), Twitter and Tumblr with a synopsis of the book and some rough thoughts on it. My official review will be linked on all these posts so my followers can find it easily and read it. My review will also be posted on Goodreads once it has been posted on this blog.
My reviews will be structured as follows:
• A photo I have taken of the book for my other social media
• Book cover
• Information on the book (Title, author, publisher, page count, format, genre)
• Book synopsis
• My review
• 2 – 5 Quotes will be placed throughout the review
• My rating
• Links to the author (Twitter, Goodreads, etc)
• Links to purchase the book (Amazon, Book Depository, Wordery etc)
Rating System:
I really not enjoy this book, at all.
I didn’t like this book.
This book wasn’t good, but it wasn’t terrible either.

I found this book somewhat enjoyable.
This book was good, and I would recommend it.
Great! I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
This book was an amazing read! I definitely recommend it.
This book was absolutely incredible. You need to read it right now. Seriously, right now.
As mentioned, my reviews are my own honest opinion. So, if I do not like the book then my review will be based upon that opinion. My reviews will contain no hatred against the author or book itself, and if I don’t enjoy it, I will go into depth why this was.
My reviews are not meant to be harmful in any way, and I will always note in my review that this is my personal opinion and others may not think the same.
If by any means I can’t finish reading the book, then I will state why along with the page number I finished on. But, it is rare for me not to finish a book.
For published books, it may take me a few months to read and review the book, this all depends on how many requests I have at the time. If I receive an ARC then I will try to get my review posted before or shortly after the release date. If the review is needed for a certain time, then please make me aware of this when you contact me so I can make something work.
