Accepting

-If I accept a book for review, it guarantees a review.

-I will make an effort to read books in an organized, scheduled manner with regards to the release date, however I cannot guarantee this if I recieve a book within 2 weeks of the release date.

Reviews

- I will write reviews for every book I finish. They do not contain any spoilers.

-Many reviews will be posted on my Goodreads, however they will not be as detailed and will most likely only contain my initial "surface" thoughts. (I will not go in depth).

-Some reviews may appear on Amazon as well.

-I write honest reviews, and that may not always mean i enjoyed the book. My reviews relfect my opinion. I do NOT write nasty or snarky commentary about the author. 


Review Structure

-All reviews will include:  
  • Cover art
  • Book stats: Title, author, publisher, page count, release date, series status
  • Where I received the book
  • My review: What I liked and didn't
  • Star rating
Star Rating:

5/5 stars: I absolutely loved this book and it has definitely become one of my favorites!

4/5 stars: I  thoroughly enjoyed this book, although it's wasn't the perfect one for me. 

3.5/5 stars:  Although I had some issues with this book, overall I enjoyed it. It was above average. (solid rating).

3/5 stars: I liked this book, but there were enough times to affect my enjoyment.

2/5 stars: I may have liked some parts of this book, but there were a significant number of things that I didn't enjoy.

1/5 stars: I really did not like this book.

Ratings are my personal opinion and are not objective. There may be a book that I really didn't like but my viewers may enjoy, and the other way around.

The books that have become my favorites will have a page dedicated to that list.


*I will only be reviewing the books that I read from NOW on, so that doesn't include the ones I have already read.*
