Genres I support on my blog and post reviews on:
Any YA: Fiction, Romance, Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance, Science Fiction, Romantic Suspense, Steampunk and Dystopian. Any Adult: Fiction, Romance, Erotica, Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance, Science Fiction, Romantic Suspense, Steampunk and Dystopian.
I have been known to dabble in other genres(classics, legal thrillers,memoir) but for the most part the genres above are my favorites and would like to stick with them.
Inquiries- If you would like your book review you can contact me by email at abookloversreview@gmail. I will respond within a reasonable amount of time. Usually within 24 hours but no later then 3/4 days. If you have a specific time frame in mind for the review please make sure to mention it in your email. Also, if you are asking me to review a book from a series that is not the first I would ask that you provide all earlier books so that I can give a comprehensive review of the whole series as well. Each book will also be reviewed and posted.
Reviews post- I usually will read and post a review within 2 to 4 week of receiving a book. As I said above please let me know if you want the review posted on a certain date.
Book Formats- I will accepted any back list, new release, or ARC in bound copy format or electronic form.
What Goes In My Reviews- I'm a very moody reader so all of my reviews will be based on how the book made me feel. It will contain my personal opinions and beliefs. I try not to make them too long and drawn out but some times I have very strong opinions and a lot to say on some of the characters and subject. I try my hardest not to give away any spoilers. I think I have done a pretty good job so far in not giving away too much in my reviews. I want my followers to experience the book just like I did so I keep most details, twist and turns to myself. I try to keep my reviews short and sweet with a telling of my likes, dislikes, and a description of the characters I had a connections with.
I have also added a couple of fun things on the bottom of my reviews like "Quotes" and "Awards". When I find a quote I enjoyed I like to put it in my reviews to give my audience a hint of what kind of voice the book has. It's always fun putting them up. The Awards is another fun little thing I wanted to give some books I think need special recognition because of how emotional the book made me feel. Not all my book reviews have them. My awards are giving to only those books that affected me strongly.
I do however mention in each review if the book contains any sexual content and/or drugs. This is to help notify parents what their child may be reading about. I found this to be a great thing to disclose because if they have found that their son or daughter has read a book containing some of these controversial subjects it may be a good opportunity to have a heart to heart with them. Or of course they can just tell them not to read it until they are ready for such subjects. Ok, so now I feel like I'm rambling. I'm sorry about that :-) I also add links to author pages, put trailers, and of course my rating of the book.
I am in no way a professional reviewer or editor but I am very passionate about reading and getting the word out about a book I have enjoyed. I do not like to post bad reviews. I think I have done that (maybe) three times and I don't take pleasure in it at all. So you may not see many bad reviews because the main purpose of posting anything is to spread the word about books I have enjoyed reading.
