You can view my list of recommendations as well as my goodreads account to see books I have read, want to read and am interested in reading. Mainly I stick to Erotica, Romance, Supernatural, Paranormal, Dystopia, Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Urban Fiction novels.

Accepting Books

If I accept a book for review, that does not guarantee a review. I will make every effort to read and review books in a timely fashion and with regard to release dates but I cannot always do this. I review books within 2-3 weeks and posts reviews here on my blog as well as on Goodreads and Amazon.
If you email a request and don't hear back from me within 3 weeks it is safe to assume that I am too busy with other reviews at the moment or not interested. That being said in the event that I cannot reply, thank you for your interest and email, I greatly appreciate author requests

Reviews

I will write a review for almost every book I finish. My reviews will also be posted on Goodreads and Amazon though they may be modified. My reviews are written in a relaxed manner reminiscent of a conversation among friends. They are not meant to be objective literary critiques.

I write fair and honest reviews, but this does not mean I will always write positive reviews. My reviews are my opinion, and if I don’t enjoy a book then my review will reflect that.

With that said, I strive to explain why the book in question did not work for me personally. I do NOT write nasty or snarky commentary about the author.

If I do not finish a book I may write an explanation for DNF-ing. These explanations are different from standard reviews and will state that I did not finish the book, what page I read up to, why I did not finish, and if I plan on ever picking up the book again.
