Exceptions
- I will review select e-books. I do not have an e-reader so it must be a .PDF file. Please contact me about a specific title.
- I cannot review a book if it is a continuation of a series or a sequel, and I have not read the first book(s). Please contact me about series reviews.
Review Policy
- Books are given priority by publication date, not necessarily on a first-come first-served basis. I will review all unpublished books first, and published books second.
- I will send the review to the publisher, author, source etc. as soon as I have finished it, but if the book publication is not scheduled for some time, I may wait to publish the review on the blog until closer to the publication date. With my e-mail, I will include a date the review will be live on the blog. I will send a link only by request.
- I will usually post a review for every book I read. I cannot guarantee that I will finish the book, and I cannot guarantee that the review will be positive, but if I read it or any part of it, I will review it. Some exceptions may apply.
- Please do not e-mail me and ask when a review is coming.
About the Review
- I will post a rating in a basic format of 1-5 stars, give a synopsis, critique the characters and plot, and touch a little on the writing and prose. I will always mention sexual content, violence, and language, and leave a recommendation of the age group the book will appeal to.
- I will always post my 100% honest opinion.
- My opinion is founded with the presuppositions of the Christian Berean nondenominational church. This may or may not affect my opinion of the book (see my disclaimer).
- For FTC regulations please see my disclaimer. To see my source of obtaining the book, see Reviews and find the book (sorted in alphabetical order by title). The source is written beside the title.
Contest Policy
- When you win, I will email you for your address, and send it directly to the publisher (see Privacy below).
- There is no refund/exchange for prizes lost in the mail.
- Any contest/giveaway winners under the age of 13 must have parent/legal guardian permission to enter a contest.
Privacy Policy
- I will never under any circumstances give/sell your information to anybody.
