Review Policy I am a firm believer that every story has a reader and we all like different things. My reviews and ratings are personal to my tastes and preferences. I do not accept/receive any monetary compensation for my reviews and with that in mind, I will endeavour to post honest and authentic reviews whether positive or negative. All the books I review are either purchased by me, borrowed from my local library, or provided by publisher/author free of charge, and my reviews are uninfluenced by the method/source through which I obtain the book. My ratings are out of five, zero being the lowest score and five being the highest score. It’s extremely rare for me to give any book a zero, but it probably means I did not finish it. My ratings are based on my thoughts about plot, character, world building, language, action, tension as well as my overall feeling after I’ve finished a book. Preferred genres include: fantasy, sci-fi, magic realism, thriller, suspense, historical fiction, non-fiction that teaches me something new, crime, literary fiction, classics, action and adventure, mystery, YA, paranormal (vampires, shapeshifters or strange creatures), biography/memoir/autobiography, comedy, contemporary, chick lit, some fun romance. What I don’t read: horror (ghosts, zombies or anything frightening), novels set in WW1 or WW2 (I read a glut of these a few years ago and need a few years rest!), slushy romance (any novel with a male torso or a couple embracing on the cover is not for me), erotica, Westerns, any book that is overtly religious, celebrity or sportspeople biography / memoir / autobiography, children's, poetry. I post my full review on this blog and an edited version on Goodreads. I do not post on Amazon. I read both eBooks on my Kindle (.mobi) and print books. I am happy to read self-published authors. I reserve the right to turn down review requests if I don't feel the book is for me. If you have a book you’d like me to review, please send me an email with the information first. If I'm interested, I'll request the book. I am happy to include posts other than reviews on my blog, such as guest posts and author interviews so please contact me if you have a suggestion. Thanks, Rosalyn Please note: I am a member of the Amazon Affiliates program and receive a small compensation if you click through to the Amazon website and buy a book listed on my blog.
