What You May Expect After You Send the Book

All published reviews will reflect my PERSONAL opinions. Honesty is a key element to my reviews and I shall remain true to myself and my beliefs. I will NEVER post comments that are rude or that insult the hard work of the author.

I will NOT sell or giveaway my ARC copies.

All review copies will be reviewed as soon as possible while integrated into my personal reading schedule (i.e. books that I have purchased for review). I will attempt to contact you when the book review is scheduled to post and provide the link.

I will post a duplicate copy of my review on Goodreads and/or Amazon.com unless stated otherwise.

What Can You Expect To See In The Review

Each review will have the following components:

• Photo of the Book Cover
• Title
• Author Name
• Publisher
• Genre
• Page Count
• ISBN
• Author’s Website
• Link to Amazon.com for purchase
• Link to Goodreads page
• Release Date, if applicable
• Summary of the Book
• My Personal Review of the Book
• A Rating on a 1-5 Scale

If there are interesting movie-tie-ins, video book promotions, or other interesting web media available for the book, that may be included, as well.

What I Need From You

If you would like me to host a giveaway of the book when I post the review, please indicate so when you send me the book. Please let me know how many copies that you’d like to giveaway.
