Review Policy


Some notes on my Review Policy:
Thank you for your interest in having your book spotlighted on Crazy-for-Books.  I am currently accepting books for review from authors, publishers, and publicists with a time-frame of 3-6 months.  I am always willing to do interviews, guest posts, contests/giveaways, and blog tours. 

I love to read, but I am not a fast reader!  If you have an urgent request, I will do my very best to accommodate you. 

Books I am currently accepting for review: 

  • My first book love is contemporary fiction!
  • Literary Fiction
  • Historical Fiction (last 100 years or so, especially those centered around WWII)
  • Mystery/Suspense/Thriller
  • Romantic Suspense (not straight romance)
  • Cozy Mysteries
  • Memoirs
  • NEW:  Christian Fiction and Non-Fiction, including Bible Studies and Spiritual Growth

If any of the above books fall into any genre below, I will not accept it for review.  For example, if you have a young adult fantasy book, I will not accept it for review.

    Books I am NOT accepting for review:  
    • Paranormal
    • Fantasy
    • Science Fiction
    • Non-Fiction, including Self-Help, How-To Manuals, Fitness/Nutrition, etc.
    • Romance
    • Erotica 
    • Young Adult
    • Children’s Books, including Middle Grade (Birth-Age 13ish)
    • I DO NOT read series books out of order!  
    • Please do not send me your pitch and ask me to purchase your book.

    Review Requests:

    If your book falls into one of the above categories, please fill out the form below with the pertinent details.  If I accept your novel for review, it does not guarantee that I will post a review. I do review every book I read, but I cannot guarantee that my review will be positive.  I give my honest thoughts and opinions on the book.

    About my Review Posts:

    Included in my review posts are:  book cover art, publication details (genre, page count, ISBN, etc.), my personal review with my personal star rating (from Crazy Bad to Crazy Amazing).

    Cross-Posting of Reviews:

    I typically cross-post my reviews on Goodreads, Amazon, BN, and Paperbackswap.  If you would like your review posted elsewhere, let me know and I will do my best to accommodate your request.

    Stats:

    My blog receives about 6,500-7,000 hits and 12,000 page views per month (based on SiteMeter.com count).

    FTC Disclosure:
    In accordance with new FTC guidelines regarding endorsements and testimonials for bloggers, I would like my readers to know that many of the books I review on my site are provided to me for free by the publisher or author of the book.  I do not receive money for such reviews.  The books are sent to me for an honest review.  I will make known in such reviews if I received the book for free.  If you have any questions, please contact me.
    E-Books:
    I recently received a Nook e-reader, so I am able to accept e-books for review!  When completing the form, please state what format the e-book is in so I can make sure it is compatible.
    Google Form:
    If you would like me to review your book, please complete the form below and I will contact you as soon as possible.  Thank you for visiting my blog and I look forward to working with you!

      Pocket of Guilt is geared to the young adult audience as well as mainstream. The main characters are LDS. I wrote this book to be used in the classroom as well as for non-LDS investigator and the inactive member.

      Please check out My Mother Killed Christ:But God Loves Me Anyway. It is a memoir of a 1960 Catholic school girl growing up in a family with an absentee father and a mentally ill mother who believed she killed Jesus. It is getting 5 star reviews on Amazon since being released last week.
