Review Policy

I am not currently taking any more requests at the moment. I will update you all when this changes. Thank you for your patience. To keep updated, follow my social media for when requests are open.

Sometimes I have people requesting for me to review a book. I am always very welcome to do this as I feel privileged to be picked out of many other bloggers.

Usually the time it takes to read to making the review itself depends on how big the book is and what commitments I have at that period of time. So when it does take a little longer, don't get at me! I will usually have a valid reason why.

During this moment in time, I only accept book PDF. In the near future I am hoping to go into different formats - but not at the moment! So when I am able to do this I will let you all know, because it is important to me!

Another point that is fundamental is that you must provide a free Book PDF. If you send me a link to Amazon, Lulu saying that I have to pay before reviewing, I will not post it on my blog. This is because I am offering you free promotion, which I could instead be reading something I have been wanting to read in a long time or in fact using my time for something different. Therefore if you do not abide by this rules, I will ignore you.

I have also become strict on what type of books will be reviewed. All of the emails are read and then assessed on a criteria set by me, so I am able to provide what is best for my audience. If you wish to improve your chances make sure you provide links to your book such as Amazon, Waterstones etc. It would also help if you provide what the cover of the book is as well as the synopsis and target audience.

If I have chosen your book to be reviewed I will contact you with the email address that you provide. This where I will set up a schedule as to when I will read and review your book dependent on the factors of myself and whether the book is soon to be published or something similar.

If you want to contact me for a review request you can email me at : kikihemps97@gmail.com

A Novel Love Story by Ashley Poston

I’ve been following Ashley Poston’s work for a while. At first it was the comic con series back in 2020 when she first became known to me during COVID. After I read the series I forgot about her for a while. It was only when I went into my local Waterstones to pick up The Dead Romantics she came back under my radar. She is now one of my must buys if a new book comes out. Her take of the romantic genre has always been fresh and interesting with some form of magical realism. A Novel Love Story follows our heroine Elsy, otherwise referred to as Eileen. Unlucky in love she struggles to try new things. Instead, she is comforted by her favourite book series by her favourite author, Rachel Flowers. On her way to a cabin retreat by herself, she finds her car broken down in a town that is somewhat familiar to her favourite book series. I’m not going to lie, compared to Poston’s earlier novels this book took some time for me to get into. There have been numerous occasions where I’ve had to...

Thoughts of a Bookworm #2: I am a book addict

Throughout my reading life, there has always been something that has made me happy beyond measure. It's the feeling which I get from buying and collecting and placing new books on my shelf. It is even that great excitement when I have gone into my favourite bookshop and be able to walk around to buying that book that I've been eying up after half an hour browsing. But then the pandemic happened and my reading habits changed for the worst. At first, when the lockdown was first announced, everything was fine. I still had my last year studies at university, which were coming to a close and I had my sister with me. So, I would say I was pretty lucky compared to some of the other people that were facing the same problem of the pandemic. It is only when I finished my degree and began looking for a new job it seems my life took a little spiral and I have only come to realise this in the last few months. Then the book requests started to enter my inbox. The inbox that I haven't lo...

But she is in love with a shepherd who promised to return to her. As the village becomes isolated in a sea of snow, Edith loses her power of speech. And it is this enchantment that will have far-reaching consequences, not only for Edith but for the whole village.'

My Favourite Books... So Far

I have only really been reading seriously since I was thirteen years old, but I sure have found some books which I believe have really entertained and changed my perspective of life. Here are a few that I have rounded up that might be of interest to you. 1. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl Yes, this is pretty much a staple in any young reader's bookshelf, but not for me it wasn't. I didn't get to read this treasure until I was nineteen and I was so annoyed that I left it so long. Seriously, who doesn't love the idea of winning a golden ticket to a chocolate factory? It's the perfect little read for any age. Don't get me started on the writing! Oh, I could talk all day about it. It's simply perfection. 2. Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell I know I'm basic. This is already such a popular book already, but I just couldn't resist. This book personally came at the right time for me. I read it just as I was going round and researching universities t...

The Blood Of Olympus: The Heroes Of Olympus by Rick Riordan

Yes. I have finally made it. When receiving the book last year on the day that it was published, I was very excited, not only because it had more about my favourite demigods, but also it was signed by the author himself. But then I thought, do I really want to finish what I started so many years ago? The book universe which literally made me the person I am today - writing to you. That is why it took over a year to gain the courage to tell myself that it is ok to move on. To not be stuck in the past. Cherish the moments that you have now, and see how much of a person you have become in these last few years. So, with my heart in my throat, I have decided to record and review the last Percy Jackson story that we will ever know there to be (except of course for the books which talk about Greek God's and Heroes). Right, just gathering my thoughts to tell you the final chapter. I guess you never know how difficult it is to give up your favourite characters, until the very end, wher...
