Do you have an upcoming Young Adult book? I would love to feature a review on my blog, but please take note of my review policy below:
Review Format/Features
All of my reviews will feature a brief synopsis of the novel, my opinion of the author’s writing, and a short review of positive takeaways, negative takeaways, etc. Disclaimer: All reviews I write are reflections of my own personal opinions. Those opinions may be positive, negative, or somewhere in between. If you do not want to receive a 100% honest review, please do not request that I review your book on this site. While I respect the time, effort, and soul that an author has poured into their work, I will not in good conscience write a biased review due to an author’s request.

Rating Scale:
My rating scale is based on a 5 star standard, explained in further detail below: 5 Stars: Fantastic! This book has earned its rightful place on my shelf of favorites. (I’ll be honest, this rating is hard to achieve). Highest recommendation.
4 Stars: Great book, very enjoyable read, but perhaps a stone’s throw away from perfection. Highly recommended.
3 Stars: Liked the book, but there were also some pretty major issues. Definitely at least worth reading the first time, and I will likely continue future books in a series.
2 Stars: Only okay. Good premise, perhaps a few enjoyable moments, but probably didn’t hold my attention for most of the story. Wouldn’t recommend to most readers.
1 Star: This is where it gets ugly. One star ratings typically are the result of the following: poor plot execution, unrelatable main characters, underdeveloped bad guys, and poor copy editing. Typically when I give this rating, it’s because it was extremely difficult for me to finish the book due to lack of interest.
