Book Review Policy

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and check out my Review Policy.

First and foremost: I only review books I enjoyed reading on this blog. Because of this, it may seem as though the reviews here are always favorable, but I am neither paid for what I type here nor am I a fan of every book I read. As a writer myself, I would never want to slam someone else's hard work. Authors put their hearts into what they write. Just because one person doesn't like a novel doesn't mean that millions of others won't love it. Just because I don't like a book doesn't mean you won't and vice versa. This is a blog for my personal opinions and I won't write bad things about an author that takes away a potential fan of that book. I may mention something I disliked in a book, but I will never post a bad review.

Primarily, I read/review more Teen books than I do adult or middle-grade fiction, but I am open to reviewing anything I have an interest in, especially in the fantasy genre.  My favorite sub-genres are high fantasy, fairy tales and mythological retellings, and dystopian novels.

I'm always interested in featuring author interviews, blog tours, and giveaways on the blog, so I'd love to work with you if the title requires such promotion.

Reviewed titles are eventually posted on sites such as AmazonBarnes and NobleGoodreads, and Library Thing. Sometimes, I'll link to this blog and mention current entries via Facebook or my BN.com Forums profile. Please let me know if you'd like my review of your work posted elsewhere.

If you are a agent, publicist, or author and would like to have your title reviewed, please contact abackwardsstory-at-gmaildotcom.
