Like all writers, I absolutely love reading.   


I began reviewing my books on Goodreads about 18 months ago and discovered that I really enjoyed creating both a record and a review blog of all my reading.    

 

What started life as a few sentences began to expand and aside from reviewing my personal reading, I am now taking part in the Author Reviews program with Online Book Club. and also reviewing for Net Galley and Book Sirens.   

 

As a self-published author, I know how valuable a decent, well-written and genuine review can be. 

Review Policy & Submission Guidelines

 

Happy to review most genres; although my preferences are:  
Romance (any sub-genre but not overt Erotica), Historical Fiction, Horror, Crime, Mystery – not overly keen on Fantasy and Science Fiction but will always give it a go.    


No children’s, YA, Religious, Political or Self-Help books, please. 

 

Please use the contact form, stating ‘Review Request’ in your Subject Header. - I do not make any charge for my reviews but would appreciate that you subscribe to my blog if you wish your work reviewed.     This box is checked for ease on the contact form. 

Please include a brief summary of your book and any other details for consideration (target audience, genre etc..).   
Please do not attach your work with your initial enquiry.   If I am able to review your work, I will advise turnaround time – and in most circumstances, be able to give you a date for completion of your review.   

  

I will email the review to yourself first, but please note this is for your information and not for amendment. 

 

All reviews will be posted here, Goodreads, Twitter and Amazon.co.uk – I am not currently able to post on Amazon.com.   You are welcome to use my review for your own personal website/social media, as long as this blog and website are referenced. 

I will always endeavour to provide a fair, unbiased and honest review.  If I feel that your work is simply not for me; I could not engage with it (and reading is subjective so it happens), I will email and advise.   If I consider there are issues (spelling/grammar/plot inconsistencies or nonsense) that would also render my review below 3 or 2 stars, I will email you to discuss. 

I can accept work in the following  formats:  mobi, epub, .pdf, and  via Amazon gift for Kindle. (if UK). 


Star Ratings

I use a standard Star Rating as follows:

*****

Liked it a lot, enjoyable and would definitely recommend.

*****

It was okay in places, good in others, recommended.

*****

Fell a little short and not for me.

*****

Did not enjoy and simply not good enough.
