What I review
I am currently accepting ARCs and finished copies. While I prefer physical copies, I will accept epub or mobi format ebooks. I will accept self-published books at my own discretion.
I read widely, and there are not a lot of genres I won’t read. I only read adult, young adult, and new adult age categories.
Genres I prefer:
- Dark Romance / Romantic suspense / paranormal romance / humorous romance
- Horror
- Mystery / crime / thriller
- Fantasy / paranormal / supernatural
- Soft science fiction
Genres I don’t generally read:
- Historical fiction (unless there’s a fantasy / thriller element. Or time travel. I love genre-blending! There are some exceptions, of course–I love Kate Quinn’s books)
- Literary fiction (depends on the hook)
Genres I won’t read:
- Erotica* (Romance can definitely have lots of sexy stuff, I just won’t review books that are only sexy stuff. My mom reads this blog! 🙈)
- Hard science fiction*
*If you have a hard science fiction / erotica, then we’re talking 😉
I will respond to all review requests as quickly as I can.
Content of Book Reviews
I provide my opinions on the book itself, the plot, the characters, the setting, and the language. I’m candid about my opinions. I avoid major spoilers, but it’s hard to write a review that’s entirely spoiler-free. (However, this depends on if you consider talking about character development, etc. a spoiler). Reviews run from 400 – 1000 words. Sometimes short and sweet hits the spot!
Reviews of books will be posted on this blog and on Goodreads.
If I receive a free copy of the book to review, I will state as such at the end of my review, in compliance with ethics and integrity and whatnot.
