At this moment I AM accepting review copies of books. I DO live in Canada. If you publishing company allows you to send books my way, please read on.
Remember, there are exception to EVERY rule. Say your/ your client's novel doesn't meet one of the
requirements, please don't be afraid to request a review copy to me. I may just politely decline to your novel.
Most bloggers start out their review policies saying how blogging is not their job. As it is true for me, because I don't get paid to blog, but I do treat it as if it was my job. I really want this blog to turn into something really important and I want these times of my life to be as memorable as possible.
I will NOT be accept money for a positive review. I am only going to post my personal thoughts on the book and give my honest though about it and I will not accept a review copy if I have to give a positive review for. I will turn down the offer of the review copy if I have to give a positive review for money/bribery.
At this moment, I WILL be open holding giveaways or contests, but this may change at a later date. I would also love to hold author interviews or guest posts.
Now, I AM accepting Kindle files. I will also be accepting both ARCs and finished copies. I will accept both hardcover and paperback novels.
I please request that you please DO NOT send duplicates of your novel unless I kindly request one. I would rather see another blogger receive the book rather than having me have two copies on my shelf and not even touching one of the copies.
Books
Right now, I AM accepting self-published novels as well as traditionally published novels. I will NOT be accepting non-fiction books. If the novel is a part of a series and I haven't read the previous books in the series, I may request a copy of each of the books before it so that my review will make sense and it will be a better review of your/your client's novel.
I am open to all genres, but the main genres I like are chick lit, romance, fantasy, dystopian, and historical fiction. I mostly read and review YA fiction, but I do read and review some middle grade fiction and adult fiction.
My reviews contain cover art, summary, ratings, the main review, overall out of five star ratings, and much more.
I may not be able to post a review of the book right after I receive it or right after I finish reading it. I am busy, so it depends on how busy I am to when I post the review of the book. You MUST have my permission to post my review on other sites or have my review quoted on any other site.
I reserve the right to change my review policy without notice.
