Thank You For Considering Us!
ALL BOOKS REVIEWED ON THIS BLOG ARE EITHER PURCHASED OR OBTAINED FROM THE AUTHOR OR PUBLISHER IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW. I ACCEPT NO MONETARY COMPENSATION FOR MY REVIEWS.
We offer Book Reviews and Author Q&A, both free services that we share on social media. Please fill out the appropriate form below and read our conditions.
Conditions for requesting a review:
- The book must be in the contemporary romance genre or paranormal or fantasy genres, but not historical, based on the blurb you provide in the request. If you have a question about what we read, please reference our past reviews for examples or send us your request. We will let you know if we accept or decline. If we begin reading the book and are unable to finish it, you will be notified with an explanation.
- If you have a book series or trilogy, but the book you’re interested in having reviewed isn’t the first, please let us know. We do prefer to read a series in order. A standalone book or the first in the series is better for giving an honest review. We do love a doulogy rather than a series of books.
- We have no issues working with Authors, Indie Authors, and Publishers, both large and small. We just love books and reviewing them. Please understand we can’t review everything we are offered, so we are picky about what books we choose to review. Obviously, anything that helps us, as well as you, for promotion and growth on social media, like special editions, book pr boxes, or just a hard copy, will be treated with a little more promotion than an e-book, but we still love our electronic copies of books as well.
- We reserve the right to decline any book. You may send the request, but we can’t take all the books we get requests for, and are looking for standout stories that will intrigue our audience. We will contact you if we accept or decline your request.
- If your requested review book isn’t available for free on Kindle, we request that you email it to us upon acceptance of your review request. We provide our service for free and do not feel we should have to purchase the book we have been requested to review. This goes for hard copy books, PR Boxes, and anything Arc-related. Anything else can be discussed,
- We will place reviews on additional websites. This includes Amazon, Goodreads, Book Sirens, NetGalley, Instagram, Facebook Page, and Pinterest. If this book is an ARC(Advanced Reading Review Copy), I have received the book for free in exchange for an honest review. I will also share the review on any social media sites relating to this blog.
- We read mainly in KPF format, but we can read a PDF or a docx. We read on Kindle. Please let us know what format you are sending in for review. We can accept Book Funnel codes to get your ARC copy or from an ARC review site. We prefer Arcs through BookFunnel.
- Our time frame is typically 2 weeks, but it can be a month, and we will be professional and email you letting you know when we are posting the review to the requested sites, as well as the links to access our posts. If your request interests us, you may share our posts and reviews.
- What’s Included in your Review
- Honest review without spoilers
- Private constructive criticism by email, if there is any, with all posted review links, if we have contact with you by email or social media.
- Review is posted on blog and social media sites as long as a 3 – 5 star review. We only post 2-star reviews on this blog under our discretion, but they are posted on Goodreads and Amazon.
- How we rate is below; however, we reserve the right to rate your book honestly. We do read or listen to all books.
How We Rate
This rating means we loved the book, and we may want to just reread it; everything in it captured our attention.
We enjoyed the book, but there might be something in it, or the characters, that just didn’t work for us. Constructive criticism will be given. A lot of times, this rating is given because the story is just not memorable.
We liked the story or the characters, but something was off in it that needs work; it could be plot lines, grammar, memorable scenes, emotional connection, or just too tropey and not for us. Constructive criticism will be given to the author if we have a private connection.
Oftentimes, this book is difficult for us to enjoy, and the storyline is scattered. There are a bunch of spelling and grammar mistakes, or we didn’t finish the book. In some cases, we may finish the book and arc read and still post a review on the blog and social media at our discretion, but we will not tag the author. Constructive criticism will be given privately by email. In some cases, we will only post the review on Goodreads and Amazon. This is the lowest review we will post.
