Review Policy

 Review Policy



Hello there!
I am delighted that you are considering using me to review your novel.

I am currently open to review requests, but please take five minutes to read through my review policy first. 

Genres I am NOT Accepting

- Non-Fiction Novels: whilst I do enjoy a good non-fiction novel, I am very particular which type of non-fiction novels I read and to save both mine and your time, I prefer to choose them for myself. 

Genres I Read

I read a wide variety of genres, but I am particularly suited to horror, thriller and crime novels. I suggest reading through my blog archive to get a feel as to whether your novel is well suited. Here are a list of what I usually read; 

YA:

- contemporary/realistic 
- dystopian
- science fiction
- mystery
- fantasy 
- thriller
- historical fiction

Adult:

- literary fiction
- horror
- mystery/thriller
- science fiction
- historical fiction
- fantasy 

Genres I do NOT Read

If your novel is purely romance or comedy then it is most likely not for me. There are plenty of book reviewers that would be more than happy to read those genres but, for me they are unlikely to be a good fit.

What Forms I Accept

- digital/kindle
- physical copies 

What To Include In Your Review Request

- summary
- the release date
- any relevant information
- the timeframe in which you wish your novel to be reviewed by

What Happens After Your Request Has Been Accepted

Please note that by accepting and receiving your novel, that it does not guarantee that your book will be read immediately or published to my blog straight away. I do however, promise that I will read your novel in a timely matter and that I will contact you if there are any reasons for delay. Please be appreciative that I live a busy life working full time with three young children, sometimes things take a little longer than expected.

I reserve the right to NOT publish the review of your novel if I feel uncomfortable doing so. You will always be contacted if this situation occurs.

My reviews will be published on my blog, Twitter, Goodreads and Amazon. I am also happy to post the review elsewhere, if requested.

Any abuse towards myself will not be tolerated and you will be declined any future requests.

What Happens If I Dislike Your Book?

If you are not happy to receive a fully honest and open review, then please do not request me to review your novel. I am always incredibly grateful for the novels that I do receive, but this by no means ensures that you will get a glowing review. I will publish all reviews, even if they are negative. My time is valuable and I use that time to read your novel, I feel I reserve the right to talk about that experience as I wish. My reviews will always be respectful and I fully appreciate that your response will be respectful and not hateful.
