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

The Heir by Kiera Cass

Sorry for the whole, leaving it for a month sort of thing. I've had a lot happening this past month, some more life-changing compared to some. So writing on this blog was put on a back burner for a while. This is also probably going to become a little bit of a thing though, now having so much more to cope with in my own life. Therefore i have been debating as to whether i should only post every fortnight. Because then not only will i be a bit more reliable but also, on some occassions there may be a bit more content compared to the weekly posts. I may even be able to talk about more than one book - if you are really lucky! Anyway, let's get onto the review that you have been waiting patiently for! This time i have been going back to my high piled TBR list and i picked a favourite as to which i have been wanting to read, since it was first published in May. I love the cover itself. It is so individual to the protagonist of the story. Especially when this is the second p...

Thoughts of a Bookworm #6: Booktok is killing literature

Booktok. One of the most exciting community spaces for a reader in the past five years. A place where there is a big online community giving insight into old and new releases. Reviewers who are receptive to their audience and you don't have to be 'somebody'. This is no branded bookclub. It is a place for all people with different tastes come together to share what they truly love. Books. I have to be honest, I have also been a fly on the wall. Using their recommendations many a time for myself or as research to help someone else in their favourite genre. It can be a great tool. But there are times where I have thought that I was giving into the book version of 'fast fashion'. But what do I mean by 'fast fashion' exactly? Well, have you been watching recently? Especially in the romantasy space where plots have been subverted to a simple trope. One huge example that I tend to see is 'how much spice is there?' I get it. You want certain things to make...

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...
