Review Policy

For a book review


The easiest way to reach me is to send me an e-mail. If you are sending me info on a specific book, please put "Book for consideration" in the subject line {this makes it easier for me when I am skimming my Spam folder for misdirected e-mails}. Also please include in the body of the e-mail:

• if you wish to send me a finished hardcopy, an ARC/ARE, or a PDF
• how you wish to ship the book; if a hardcopy or ARC/ARE (USPS, UPS, FedEx, etc)

I will consider certain non-fiction books (ie biographies, parenting or women's reference). I read/review adult, young adult and children's books (I have two children; 18 and 6). The genres I enjoy most are (in alphabetical order):

• chick-lit
• fantasy
• historical fiction
• mystery
• realistic fiction
• romance
• science fiction
• erotica

Genre's that I am not accepting/considering at this time are:

• poetry
• short story
• memoir

I try to read the review copies that I receive in a timely manner but due to time constraints (my family and other reading interests) it may take a while. If the book is an ARC/ARE, I will try to post my review of the book in the 3 weeks before or after its release date. If the book is already published then it may take me anywhere from 2-6 months to read and review it. The exception to this is blog tours; I will post the review on a specified (by sender) date.

I have a Kindle Touch now, so ebooks/PDFs are something I am considering again!

I will consider books from any publisher; including self-published.

I always post my reviews on my blog. If requested I will post them anywhere that does not require a paid membership. Including, but not limited to: GoodReads, Shelfari, Amazon, B&N. Info on my rating system can be found here. Please remember that I will post my honest opinion whether it is positive or not. I do my best to be fair.
