Review Policy

I'm interested in reviewing books and e-books, though not so keen on audio books. As a rule, each book will get a mark out of five and a summary of the good, the bad and the ugly - though hopefully not too much of those last two.

I'm fairly open-minded when it comes to what I read, however if your book is non-fiction or fiction that has a basis in a specific area I can't promise any incisive commentary on the technicalities.

My main areas of interest book-wise are:
  • thriller/mystery
  • historical fiction
  • dystopian fiction
  • post-apocalyptic fiction
  • sci-fi
  • fantasy
  • young adult
  • travel writing
  • chick lit.
I'm not so keen on:
  • sports books
  • historical non-fiction
  • fan fiction or any "novelisation" type stories.
If you're interested in sending me a review copy of your book, I'd love to hear from you! You can get me by e-mail at mikayla-gray@hotmail.com.

Please remember a few things though:

1. I work full-time so can't guarantee a review. If I don't think I can review your book, I will of course let you know rather than leave you hanging.

2. I will promise to try and finish your book (all finished books will get a review), however if I'm just not connecting with it I feel I'd be wasting both your time and mine. I try and give all books four or five chapters to grab me.

3. If you have a deadline for review, please let me know when you get in touch.

4. I've been open to bribes on many occasions - hosting pub quizzes, refereeing the inter-office football tournament and "randomly" assigning tasks in house moves to name but a few - but not here. I won't give out five star reviews in exchange for a free copy of your book. All reviews will be as fair as possible.
