*FYI: I am currently working on a long list of ARCS for review.  I will consider new requests with the understanding there is a rather lengthy waiting list at this time. 

My review sites:  My Blog, Goodreads, Amazon, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, Netgalley (if arc is from there), and Barnes & Noble.  

**I am a staff reviewer for Mystery & Suspense Magazine.  My reviews of books in the mystery, suspense, and/or thriller genres may be published there.

If you are requesting a book review, please email me with the following information:
  • Title
  • Author
  • Genre
  • Position in a series or standalone
  • Length of book
  • Release Date
  • Deadline for review
  • Contact email
Requesting a review does not guarantee acceptance.  I will let you know if I can honor your request after I receive your information.  You will find my contact info by clicking on the "Contact" tab from the Homepage.

*Please note:  I always have a waiting list of requests for arc reviews (as well as previously released book reviews).  I'm happy to consider your review requests, but ask that requests be sent as far ahead of the desired review posting date as possible.  I'll let you know whether or not I can accommodate your request.  I don't accept books for review if I can't honor review deadlines.  

♥Authors, I accept Advanced Readers Copies & previously published books for review and will be happy to consider your book for review given sufficient time.  I also accept manuscripts to beta read.  Email me including the above information to have your book considered.  You will find my contact info by clicking on the "Contact" tab from the Homepage.  Requesting a review does not guarantee acceptance.  I will let you know if I can honor your request after I receive your info.

 ♥My rating system will be applied to all books.  I will not rate a book I can't finish for any reason.  It wouldn't be honest or fair to the author or my review readers.  I will say that it takes a very special book that touches my heart and soul and haunts me long after I finish it to rate a 5 with me.  These are books that I remember always and want to reread often.
