Policies

Review Policy:

Please note that I am NOT accepting self published books at this time.
 
I am not a published author, book critic, editor or literary expert. I am just someone who loves to read. I use this blog as a platform to share my thoughts on books, book related subjects and for fun.
 
When I write about a book, I may discuss what I like, what I did not like, and what I wish I could have seen more of, or less of, for that matter. As someone who also dabbles in writing and has been part of several writing groups, I understand that a negative comment can be hurtful. Therefore, I try to be respectful, courteous and constructive. That being said, I often read a book with the same eye that I use to read my writing group’s work. I notice what works and what doesn’t work for me. (Notice I said “for me”.) But ultimately, it is not my book, not my story.
 
Check out my books on Goodreads.com to see what I liked and didn’t like. I haven’t reviewed all the books I’ve read in the past, but if you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me.
 
Genres I read: Horror, Dark Fiction, Urban Fantasy and Paranormal.  Sometimes Fantasy and Historical Fiction (British and Celtic).  YA in the aforementioned genres.
 
FTC disclaimer: I receive no compensation, financial or otherwise, for book reviews. I disclose where I received each book at the beginning of each review.
 
Other disclaimers: Please note that I am part of the Amazon Affiliates program.  This means that if you click on a link to Amazon through my site and buy a book, I receive a small percentage.
