Review Policy

I will gladly accept any Middle Grade, Young Adult, or New Adult book for review, whether it’s an already released book or an ARC.  I am not accepting e-books at this time. I am also open to accepting swag, host giveaways/contests, interview authors, or join blog tours. Some places I post my review to are Twitter, Goodreads, and WordPress. ARC’s are respected! As a Collection Development Librarian I read them and buy them for my library system. The actual ARC’s, I pass on to my co-workers or keep them. I may pass them on to other bloggers or readers (when its anything else besides YA), and I never sell them.

My favorite genres are, but not limited to:
Paranormal, Sci-Fi/Fantasy, Dystopian, Contemporary and ANYTHING including romance. Also, I will always be more prone to accepting your offer if your book is diverse in some way since that is part of my job. 

If I accept a book for review I promise to read in a timely manner, with a review to follow 2-3 weeks after it’s been finished, unless otherwise asked by the author or publisher. I will always give an honest and thoughtful review of the book. I do NOT promise to love it.

Along with my review and rating, I will display the cover art, title, author, publisher, length, and format of the book. I will also mention where I received the book from if it was not bought.

Thank you so much for your interest. I will try and respond to your email in a timely manner!
Please e-mail any questions or requests to pnh002(at)gmail(dot)com (That’s pnh0<zero>0<zero>2<two>)For those interested in blog stats:
I started this blog on January 1, 2011. It has changed many times since then and is updated almost daily. I receive many hits from other book bloggers and other people alike. From my profile overview, you can see that I attended the University of North Texas and I studied to be a Youth Services Librarian. Graduation was December 2017. I spent a year as a Children’s Specialist and I spent 2 years as a Teen Librarian. I am now a Collection Development with an emphasis on Diversity, Inclusion, & Equity. I purchase books for the entire system, but I also find ways to make our current diverse collection more “seen.” 
PERSONAL TRIGGERS INCLUDE: Insects, Roaches/Spiders, Drug Abuse, Cops (Meaning no cop romances, I will read books like The Hate U Give, etc.)
