I’m a lifelong voracious reader and love to share reviews of the books I enjoy. Knowledge sharing in general is a good thing.
What I do is recommend books that I find particularly good. I try to be honest without being overly critical.
As a novelist, reviewer, and screenwriter, I do a lot of reading, some of it directly job-related. So, I have to pick and choose what I review.
I also receive numerous books from authors, publicists, and publishers. In addition, I request them from Netgalley and authors. I do not guarantee a review on my blog in exchange for books. A book is accepted with the understanding that I may review it for the blog. No other compensation is received.
b.) Release Date
c.) Sample chapter (I will not read books without first sampling if the writing style is a fit for me)
I’m grateful to all the publishers, publicists, and authors who send me books. Thank you. Reviews will appear on my blog if I’ve had a chance to read, and finish, the book. If I do not finish a book, I won’t review it, and I will not respond to emails asking when, or if, I’ll be reviewing a book.
Oh, that’s another thing. I don’t have a handy staff of reviewers, paid or unpaid. Right now, it’s just me.
