About the Blog/Review Policy

*The latest version of this post was written on November 28, 2011. (Note: I don't often update this page because stats scare me and I try not to obsess over them.)

- Stats: There's a follower widget in the top right of the blog, but that is only public followers, not people who are subscribed in only a reader. The vast majority of days I get at least 150 unique hits, usually around 200-300. 

- Reviewing: I like reviewing books. It is enjoyable. If you want me to review your book, here's some info for you:

  • I pretty much read anything that is YA. I tend to like historical fiction and more realistic, contemporary books more though. I also like zombies, superhero books, and books that involve musicals. I'm not big on fantasy, but I do like some. I no longer read paranormal unless it's something that sounds truly original or awesome, so if you're going to ask me to read your paranormal book, please peruse my blog and see if it would be something I like before you ask.
  • No to self published books and e-books. (Can't handle e-books. My eyes are already bad enough.) No nonfiction/self-help either. Or really Christian/religion-y stuff. I also don't do comic books.
  • I DO NOT WANT ADULT BOOKS. I don't care if it has crossover appeal- I've had too many bad encounters with adult books with "teen appeal!"
  • I finish most of what I read (only book I can remember never finishing is Julie of the Wolves in fifth grade.) but I don't guarantee a review. I'll do my best though. 
  • If I don't get to reviewing your book, it's probably because I still have yet to read it, I didn't have much to say about it, or there was some ~drama involved with it on the internets. 
  • I will be ~honest.~ ~Honesty~ is good. So if I don't like the book, I will say so.
So if you want to send a book my way, email me. (: But be warned: I AM FREAKING SLOW. Like, don't send me a book and expect a review the next week. Give me a (long) while. I'm an extremely moody reader.

- Interviewing: I like interviews better if I've read the author's book or I can find a lot of info about the author and books online. I enjoy stalking author websites, looking for information to help me think of questions. Interviews are funtimes.
