I review every book that I read, whether it is a review copy, from the library, or from my own bookshelf. My reviews are always honest and they do tend to focus more on my personal reactions to the book rather than any literary merit it may or may not possess.
I accept a limited number of books for review on this blog. Here are some genres I usually enjoy reading:
- literary fiction
- historical fiction
- historical non-fiction
- literary non-fiction
- science fiction
- fantasy
Here are some genres I usually avoid:
- paranormal
- romance
- self-help
- urban fantasy
- chick lit
- crime fiction/thriller
- young adult fiction
- celebrity memoir/tell-all
- "overcoming my horrible past" memoirs
- horror
In general I accept 2-3 review books each month, and I'm currently scheduling reviews 3-4 months in advance. If you have a book you'd like reviewed
contact me to discuss your book and whether it would be a good fit for me. Please note that I usually do not review books that are sent to me without prior approval.
