Review Policy

 

*******************************************

 

March 1, 2013

 

Review requests are currently closed for the months of March and April unless I've contacted you directly or have reviewed for you previously. For those books I've already accepted, they will be reviewed sometime before summer.

 

I'm happy to accept books from authors and publishers alike - Indie Authors are welcome here too. I will accept books in both print format (ARCs, galleys, etc.) or digital format (MOBI, EPUB or PDF). I will also accept a gifted kindle copy through Amazon.

I mostly prefer Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance, Dystopian, Mystery/Thriller and Historical and Contemporary/Paranormal Romance. Adult and Young Adult are both fine. I'm not the best choice for Non-Fiction books, memoires, autobiographies, etc. For a better idea of my tastes, check out my bookshelves on GoodReads or my author archive of reviews.

All reviews are strickly my opinion of the work - whether or not I like the story, pace and plot progression, character development and my overall happiness with what I've read. While I cannot promise a positive review for every book, I will be fair with my analysis and keep spoilers to a minimum.

Reviews are posted here on this blog, GoodReads, Amazon US and sometimes the publisher's website. If you need a review to be placed somewhere specific, please let me know during the submission process. I'll always have a few ARCs in the stack so if you need a specific deadline, please let me know ahead of time.

If you're interested in submitting your work for a possible review, please send me an email at devonashleywritesATyahooDOTcom. Unfortunately I don't have time to answer every request, so if you haven't heard back from me within 3 days I'm probably not the best person to review your book.

To see what I like and don't like in a proposal, check out the post Gah! Proposal Etiquette People!.

Kind Regards,
Devon Ashley

ARC reviews will begin on this website in May 2011.
