Request a Review

I would love to receive and review ARCs or recently released books.

WHAT TO EXPECT
My reviews are completely subjective, based on the thoughts and feelings brought out by the story and characters in your book .  I'll state what I liked and didn't like, and be completely honest about it.  If I loved it, I will say so, and if I didn't, I will say so too.

At this time, as of 03/09/2012, if your request for a review is accepted, I can't guarantee an immediate review upon receiving a copy of your book.  However, I will try my best to review the book in a timely manner, but I also do not guarantee I will finish the book (because I just might not like it...).  If that is the case, I won't be posting a review.  Please keep in mind that everyone has different tastes.  And as mentioned above, I do not guarantee positive reviews.

If I have completed a request for review, I will send you a link to the review here on my blog and at Goodreads.  If it was a review for an ARC, it will be posted about 2 weeks before the release date.

WHAT I ACCEPT
Genres I enjoy:

• YA
• Romance (especially historical romance and sports romance)
• Paranormal
• Steampunk
• Cozy mysteries
• Chick lit 
• Historical fiction
• Books with knitting, crochet, and/or sewing patterns

I would love to accept books for review.  I am also open to author interviews, author guest posts and/or contest/giveaways for these genres.  For book review copies, I will accept print books (hardback or paperback), Kindle e-books, or audiobooks.  I am also a member of NetGalley and will accept review copies through there.  However, I will not accept Christian/Inspiration fiction or any other religious fiction.

If the book is part of a series that I haven't read before, it would be nice if the previous books in the series were also provided, as I find it's more enjoyable to read a series in order.  You're able to know the back story and characters better that way.

HOW TO REQUEST
If you would like to have a book reviewed, please send me an email at bookgeekdiaries@gmail.com with a synopsis or press release, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.  I reserve the right to decline a request for review.

In your email, please include:

• a blurb or synopsis of the book
• book title and author
• publisher
• genre(s) the book falls under
• a picture of the book cover
• whether or not the book has been released yet; if it not, then please state when it will be released
• anything else you'd like posted with the review (author profile, social media links, etc.)

Thank you!
