Before making a review request, please understand that I will only respond to your email if I am interested in reviewing your book. I'm behind on reviews, so it's unlikely I will respond.
If you have requested a review from me, I promise I am
working on it. Thank you for understanding.
**Also, I recently moved, so my address has changed. If you have sent me physical review copies before and would like to continue to do so, please email me so I can give you my new address. Thanks.**

I accept ARCs
and finished book copies for review. I have decided that I will not accept
ebook copies anymore. Why? Because I accept them, start to
read them, and then forget about them. Then, I feel bad. I'm sorry if you
only have an ebook copy, but I want to make sure you get
a review out of me, and that won't happen if you send me an ebook/electronic
version.
If the book's
description does not interest me, I more than likely will not email you back. I
also will not pay for books that authors/publishers request for me to
review.
I mostly read YA
and New Adult books, preferably paranormal, sci-fi, contemporary, LGBTQ, or fantasy; I do read
some adult books.
I will try to
review a book within a few weeks; however it may take 2-3 months depending
on my schedule. If I am sent a book and I have not posted a review within this
time frame, it may not have been of interest to me (I will try to push through). If I cannot finish a physical review book, I will either send it to another
reviewer or have a giveaway for interested readers. I will never sell Advanced
Reader Copies on this blog or anywhere else. If you have a specific date you
wish my review to go up, please send the book at least two months in advance. I
normally add my reviews to Goodreads and
Amazon in addition to this blog page (and NetGalley if the copy is from
there).
