Important: Please read my review policy before contacting me with a review request.
- When contacting me for a review request, please state in the subject line: Review request. In the body of the email please include the following: Title, series (if applicable), author, blurb, and when you wish the review to be completed for.
- I will try to respond within 7 days to let you know if the request has been approved.
- I will often review a book as soon as I’ve completed the read unless requirements are specified by the publisher so please ensure it is made clear if you have a preference for when the review should be posted. I’m will also consider blog tour participation/giveaways/guest posts for any books I am reviewing.
- Any ARC’s received will not be sold. However, they may be used for future giveaways.
- I am always honest in my reviews. No matter if I’ve received an ARC/review copy via NetGalley or direct from the publisher, or if I’ve been loaned a copy/purchased a copy, I will always be honest in my opinions.
- Whilst hard copies are my preferred format for reviewing (please note: I live in the UK), I will also consider Kindle copies for review.
- Please be aware that I may not get to the review book immediately as I have other books on my list and I also work for a living.
- Also please note that acceptance of a review book does not guarantee a review. Whilst I always try my best to read a book right through to the end, sometimes a book just isn’t for me, and due to time restraints, I just don’t have the time to spend on books I’m simply not enjoying. If this is the case, I will always contact the supplier of the review book and let them know my reasoning.
- Please note: I do not read/review non-fiction.
- I also do not review erotic(a) on the blog due to the fact I feature YA titles on here.
- My preferences are for the following genres:
- paranormal romance
- urban fantasy
- YA
- contemporary romance
- zombie fiction
- dystopia
- post apocolyptic
- Self published titles: I’m afraid I am not accepting review requests for self published titles at the moment. This is no reflection on self published authors as I have actually posted reviews for self published titles I’ve read. However, any self published books I do read (via personal purchase) and review, I prefer to have control over the choice.
- If you are a publisher looking for a book review, and you have read and accept my review policy, please feel free to contact me at bookarooju(at)live(.)co(.)uk .
