Hello!

First of all, thank you for considering working with me. Second, this page highlights all the details you might need for the services you want to avail, including preferred genres and contact information.

I am currently OPEN for review requests.

Review Policy

All reviews featured in this blog contain my own opinions. This blog operates in compliance with the FTC Act. This means all partnerships, sponsored content, and affiliate content will be disclosed at the beginning of each post.

I review books, media (film, series, etc.), and lifestyle products that fit my voice and brand. If you’re unsure about your request and whether it will be suitable for the blog, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Book Review Requests

If you’re an author, publicist, or book publishing professional, please ensure that you have read this policy before reaching out.

I’m a blogger from the Philippines, and I always welcome requests from authors from the Filipino, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ communities.

For physical book copies, please note that I am based from the Philippines and will not shoulder any shipping costs.

For electronic or digital copies, I accept widgets or invites from Netgalley or Edelweiss, or as EPUB file only.

I also accept select audiobooks.

Review Content

Like most book reviews, I will include the book cover, Goodreads link, Amazon purchase link, synopsis, rating, and author bio at the end.

I reserve the right to call out any problematic content in the book.

For Content Warnings

I will be explicit in stating the content or trigger warnings needed for the book as a service to the readers, so please be honest and include them once you send a request.

Other Information

Turnaround Time

A book review, including reading time, may take up to three months, depends on how fast I can read, so I don’t impose a deadline on myself because I want to enjoy reading.

I cannot stress this enough: I have a full-time job so please take that into consideration when availing of my services.

Reviews for book series will also take a longer time.

If you want to have the review posted on a set deadline, I’m open to discussing my rates, l and I can prioritize reading the book and post the review on the agreed deadline.

Cross-posting Reviews

As always, all reviews will be cross-posted to my Goodreads and StoryGraph accounts. Cross-posting to Amazon / BN and other platforms is okay if requested. I also make use of my Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest accounts to promote my posts.

Blog Tours

While I can’t commit to organizing a Blog Tour, I’d be willing to join a tour only if the book really interests me. So most of the time I sign-up for tours I want but if you want me to join your tour, just let me know and we can try to work it out.

On Negative Reviews and DNFs

As I have previously mentioned, I will be objective in reviewing books and I cannot guarantee that every review will be a positive one. If in case I didn’t like the book, I will be as constructive as I can in pointing out the things that didn’t work for me.

If in case I did not finish it, I will immediately inform you. I mark books as DNF on Goodreads and post a small write-up.

Again, I will disclose all paid and sponsored content.
