Review Policy

Here are the kind of books I like and will accept for reviews:
- YA fiction in general
- magical realism
- dystopias
- contemporary fairy tales/myths/retellings
- alternate history
- non-fiction about the Georgian era
- short story collections

Here are the kinds of books I dislike and will not accept:
- adult fiction in general
- preachy / "the moral of the story is"
- non-fiction
- revisionist history
- political
- travel/cultural experience memoirs
- thrillers
- contemporary mysteries
- self-help
- romance/erotica

Here are books that I like if I pick them out but probably won't like yours: poetry, anthologies, memoirs, psychological thrillers.

A note to indie publishers: I am open to reviewing your book, but please send me the blurb and first chapter when introducing yourself.

All books that I accept for review will at the very least get a brief Goodreads review and a mention on the blog. I will not promise that every book that I accept will get its own special dedicated blog post.

I accept ARCs, finished copies, and ebooks. I don't accept audiobooks.

I write honest reviews, based on my thoughts, feelings, and observations. They are not objective. They may be influenced by the quality of my lunch.
