*: Books I prefer include: adventure, dystopian, fantasy, mystery, paranormal, romance, science fiction
*: Non-Fiction: This is a very vague category. It really depends on if I'm interested in the subject being covered or discussed. I love books about animals, places, geology, biology, authors/literature, paleontology/archaeology, and others. I don't really like reading about money or marital or health issues. Please don't send me those. Contact me with your pitch if the topic of your book fits my preferences or if it doesn't appear to qualify as something I will definitely not be interested in reading. Again, this genre is very open so take a chance if you're not sure.
Readers:
Do you like my reviews and would like to suggest a book for me to review in the future? Is there something I'm doing that you really enjoy or hate and wanna let me know? Would you just like to chat about books? If so, then feel free to comment on any post or message me through my blog's Facebook page. I'm always accepting new suggestions for future material!

If you have a book that doesn't fit the top genres, but also is not categorized as what I will NOT review, then feel free to contact me and see if I'm interested. Some things, such as horror or mystery, I have not read a lot of and if I am intrigued by your pitch, I will probably review it. However, I have not read many books of these genres and do not feel comfortable tossing myself out as the best candidate for reviewing them. *: Non-Fiction: This is a very vague category.

Hi, nice blog.
ReplyDeleteHi, Sam. Thanks so much for your review. I entirely agree with your review.
ReplyDeleteIt is my fault. This novel handles fairly gritty subject matter for adult audiences. It looks at the awful effects of cheating and I should NOT have offered this to anyone below the age of 19. I forgot to check the age. Having made the mistake I should assure you, this is only fiction; the world and its people are much nicer and loyal.
It's quite okay!! It was an enjoyable read. I'm 19 years old and I know that while there are people who will cheat and do evil things, there are also kind hearted and loyal people. It wasn't a mistake at all, I just wanted to make sure to include a couple disclaimers just in case I have younger readers (such as my sister who is 10). I really did enjoy it. I just don't like infidelity overall, but it was necessary to make the book work. It was portrayed in a true light, and not as some sort of idealized activity. Thanks for offering it to me!!!
DeleteHey Samantha, thanks for the series of articles on my ALIENS series in Screen Rant. Nice to see they're still appreciated after all these years! Mark V.
