Further Info

My review style is a tad different from a lot, which sets me apart from some other reviewers.
I don't take much to calling myself a book reviewer. I read books for entertainment value - because I simply love books and reading.
As soon as I try and write a review of a book like a critical analysis, it becomes work, and I procrastinate doing it (like I do most things).
I still want to keep the enjoyment factor of this blog, so I much prefer calling myself Book Blogger.

I try and keep my 'reviews' short. They generally consist of four paragraphs maximum (not including the summary), and I generally just talk about my thoughts and feelings of the book I've read. I generally have some main pointers of particular factors I liked/ disliked, but reading through my old reviews on my archive, a lot of them aren't very structured.

The general age group of books I blog about consist mostly of YA (Young Adult), some Adult fiction I've read and enjoyed, and New Adult.

Sometimes I don't give the books I read star ratings because I've always found that the tricky part. But, when I do:

♥♥♥♥♥   haha um no sorry.. this is terrible/ bad writing/ bad plot/ could not finish
♥♥♥♥♥   honestly was not worth my time
♥♥♥♥♥   had some potential... had some good parts, although not amazing
♥♥♥♥♥    this was a pretty damn good read! definitely recommend        
♥♥♥♥♥   holy crap my love of this book is infinite! go and buy this immediately!

Regarding series:

I do not like to read a series out of order. Because of this, I will only accept books of a series if I am given it's previous titles, it'll help me to given a far more descriptive and honest review. Otherwise I won't be able to accept it.

Format accepted/ self published books

I am soon to be going into my senior year of high school, so I don't have much time on my end. Because of this, I will not be accepting self published books.

I do, however, accept ebooks. Although bare in mind that I much prefer a hard copy so I may turn down an ebook if I'm too busy/ less interested etc.
