Hi! I currently review here, as well as on Amazon and GoodReads. My philosophy in reviewing is to find not only the artistic merit of each book’s work, but also its humanistic value. I have loved books even before I could read, and I want to cultivate that love of the written word and the book community by giving honest, well-considered opinions on:

• who would enjoy each work I review
• its unique and effective charms
• areas I feel could be explored in your further work.

Unless otherwise agreed upon, I cross-post content (pictures and/or reviews) to Amazon, Twitter, Instagram, GoodReads, and Barnes and Noble. If there is any reason you would not like a review to be posted to a certain platform, or would like it shared elsewhere, please let me know upfront!

I am actively taking requests for reviews, and can be reached at: coco.carre.content@gmail.com

Before e-mailing, please read the following:

1. I can take physical books, as well as e-books in the following formats: AZW (or any Kindle format), MOBI, ePub, and PDF.
2. All of my reviews are honest. If I dislike certain aspects of a book, or can find very little to like, my review will reflect that – but even when criticizing content, I will always be respectful. Even a paid review does not guarantee a 5-star review – scores are given based on the merit of the work.
3. Unless the platform uses a different rating system, I use a 5-star rating system, with 1 star being the lowest possible and 5 stars being the highest possible.
4. I will not review books I have beta read; doing so would be unethical and a conflict of interest.
5. Reviews and scores on other platforms may be slightly altered if needed to conform to a Terms of Service agreement. For example, any profanity or vulgarities will be removed from Amazon reviews, in keeping with their guidelines.
6. Advance Review Copies take priority, so that I can be sure to have the books read and reviews posted by their release date. Upon request, I can give an estimate of when the review will go live upon receipt of the book; barring unforeseen emergencies or less than 2 weeks of turnaround time, I will be sure to have reviews live by the date of release.
7. If I note errors in a work in my review, I keep records of those and can provide a list upon request. I don’t consider dialects, poetic/artistic license, or technical rules for formal writing (for example, split infinitives or use of the Oxford comma) against works.
8. Preferred genres: Horror, young adult fiction, suspense, thriller, mystery, general non-fiction, true crime.
9. I do not take requests to review: sports narratives, romance, science fiction, political, religion, or fantasy books.
   
   

When sending a request, please include the following information:

• Title of the book
• Brief summary
• Release date – especially for advanced review copies!
• Whether the copy is digital or physical
• Any questions or concerns you have, or information you may feel is pertinent for me to know.
  
  

Thank you so much for your interest!
