**currently not taking self published author review requests**
Hello! Thank you for your interest in working with me! All reviews I post will be my honest opinion, whether that is good or bad. I will evaluate books based off many different factors, such as world building, character development, and pacing; not all reviews will evaluate the same aspects of the book, but they will all be done fairly. I will also give all books a star rating, based off the system below, with half stars.
- 5 stars: I absolutely loved it! My feelings are a mess and I don’t know when I’ll be okay again!
- 4 stars: I liked it a lot! I’m so glad I read it!
- 3 stars: I was pretty neutral. It wasn’t bad, but it could have been a lot better.
- 2 stars: I didn’t like it. Maybe others will like it, but it wasn’t for me.
- 1 star: I really hated it. Would not recommend.
- I review only Young Adult books.
- My preferred genres are contemporary, fantasy, romance, retellings, dystopian, and paranormal. I will also review some science fiction, and historical fiction.
- I will NOT review horror, erotica, spiritual, or non fiction.
- I prefer physical ARCs, although I may consider some eARCs.
- I typically do not review books from self published authors. I might make exceptions if your book sounds like something I’d really enjoy, but most likely not.
