My Policies

Review Policy

In this blog I mostly review Young Adult (YA) books, although I am open to review certain Middle Grade (MG) and Romances (specially historical).  I will gladly accept requests from authors and publishers to read and review the following genres of YA:

• Paranormal
• Dystopian
• Romance
• Mystery (Trillers)
• Fantasy
• Historical
• Contemporary

I don't accept:

• Non-fiction (such as biographies)
• Horror
• Comic books
• Books with religious undertones

I will accept ARCs and/or finished copies, as well as e-books (I own a Kindle.)  I am also willing to hold author interviews and guest posts, and  participate in blog tours.  I will accept certain self-published books, please be conscious that I cannot possible accept all the requests I receive, as I want to give each book the attention it deserves. Books that I am not interested in will be donated to the library or passed along to someone else.  Please email me with your request or question: readingwabc(at)gmail(dot)com

If I accept a book for review I cannot guarantee that the novel will be read or that I will be able to post a review.  BUT, I will try my best to post a review on the month that the book is expected to be published (I do work full-time!)  I will post my review in this blog and in Goodreads.  I can also post my review in Amazon upon request.

The summary for my reviews comes from Goodreads and my reviews contain my honest opinion and impression about the book.  It may also have comments about characterization, the cover of the book, plot, and quality of writing.  My rating system is based on grades,  from A to F (like school).

  

Thank you for your consideration! 

Contest Policy

I will be happy to host giveaways for my readers.  Contests will be limited to the United States, unless otherwise stated.  Here are other things you should know:

I reserve the right to change my policies at any time when need arises.
