Book Reviewing

All the books I review have either been paid for by myself or have been given freely by the author/publisher in exchange for an honest review. I receive no payment for my reviews.

I’m currently unable to take on more review requests due to the overwhelming demand and currently I have no plans to reopen requests officially.

I find positives in every book and make sure this is mentioned along with any negative comments and my reviews get posted on my blog, Goodreads and Amazon.uk

My ratings are as follows :-

1 Star – Unreadable (So far I’ve never had a 1* book)
2 Star – I didn’t like the book
3 Star – I liked the book but there were few things I didn’t like or would have changed
4 Star – I loved the book and there was one or two things i didn’t like or would have changed
5 Star – I loved the book and i wouldn’t change a thing about it

Do I tag authors in reviews on social media?

Certainly, no review I write is meant to be overly critical. My aim is to connect readers and authors and tagging in any social media reviews helps this. I want to support authors so even if they read the review or not i’d like them to see I’m sharing my love of their work.

10 Questions with feature/Guest blog posts

Every so often I run a 10 questions with feature or host a guest blog. Only authors I wish to feature here are published. These are simply authors I enjoy or will be reviewing shortly and I like to share an insight with fellow readers.

If you’re an author I’ve reviewed or will be reviewing and wish to take part in such a feature please get in touch.

Promotions/Author Spotlights

Once in while I  might feature a book promo but rest assured if I do so this is because it’s a brilliant deal and I have the book already or will be buying it myself. I will not feature books/collections from authors I’ve not reviewed previously. Any promotion I do is free and is done to help spread the word as far as I can to support the author whose work I enjoy.

Author spotlights are exactly that.. I pick the authors I wish to shout to the world about.. I love their work and wish to share the joy I get with as many of you as I can.

Please do not ask me  to promo your work or do an author spotlight. These posts are of my choosing and I receive nothing in return apart from the joy of reading.
