I am more than happy to review books from authors and publishers. I am willing to accept both ARC's and finished copies. I guarentee that I will not sell ARC's. Most of the time I will keep them, or I might use them in a contest to further promote the book.
I own a Kindle and now accept E-Books as well as hard copies. I am willing to recieve either.
Books I WILL Review
I will review anything in the Young Adult category, with any sub-genre, this means romance, fantasy, paranormal, dystopian, sci-fi, realistic fiction, urban fantasy, historical fiction, or other genres that are popular in Young Adult fiction. To get an idea of books I enjoy, check out my archives here.
Books I OCCASIONALLY Review
Sometimes I will accept books that are Middle Grade or Adult, as long as they have some crossover appeal. Examples of middle grade books I have read are the Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan and The Ember Series by Jeanne Duprau.
Example of adult books I have read are The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold and My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult.
Adult and Middle Grade books are my second priority and I cannot guarentee I will accept them for review.
Books I WILL NOT Review
I do not review non-fiction, biographies, or anything similar to that. I will also not review children's books (picture books, not YA or MG).
I also will not review a series book without reading the previous books. If I haven't read the previous books, please send me all of them, or I won't accept it for review.
Please Read Below Before Sending Me A Request:
If I do not reply to your review request, it is most likely because I am declining it. I do not have time to write individual reply to every review request. It is possible that occasionally they go into my junk mail folder and I do not catch them. If you're concerned that I might not have recieved it, feel free to send it again, but please no more than twice.
I love accepting books for review, but I don't have a lot of time to read and I have plenty of my own books to get through. If I don't accept or reply to your request, it's only because I don't have time, not because I'm not interested in your book. I just get a lot of them. I am more likely to accept a book that sounds genuinely interesting to me though. Don't let this stop you from sending a request though!
When I accept a book for review it DOES NOT guarentee a review. I will attempt to read every book I recieve, but if I absolutely cannot get into the book and I find myself disliking it, I will not finish it or review it. This is mainly a time issue- I don't have the time to finish a lot of books I finish myself disliking.
I do not rate and review books I do not finish. I don't believe I am in a position to give an opinion. It's possible that I will write a half-review where I explain why I couldn't finish it though, just not a full review.
Furthermore, I promise I will give an honest review of everything I read. If I accept a book for review, that does not guarentee a positive review, but I will not bash books pointlessly if I dislike them. It will be a tasteful, careful honest review simply pointing out the book's flaws.
I am also more than willing to host contests, author interviews, and other events to promote books! Just email me.

I am also an Amazon Affiliate. This means if you click on my Amazon links and buy a book, a very tiny amount of profit goes to me. Currently, I haven't made any money at all through posting Amazon links, if I ever did, all the profit would go to funding shipping on my giveaways. I make no profit through running this blog. (I spend a lot more on giveaways and buying books than I would ever profit from, anyway!).
