Review and Rating Policy

Publishers and Authors:

I’m always looking for new books to review so please feel free to send review request to:




REVIEW POLICIES:

I am a freelance writer and reviewer. I review because I love to read. I am currently accepting titles for review. Here are a few things to note:

** I cannot promise a rave review, but I will promise to post an honest one.

** I post reviews on this blog. Due to time consraints I do not as a rule post to other sites.

** I try to post a review within 60 days of receiving the book.

** If you, the author, need the review to post at a certain time, please include that information with your request.

** I read all types of books and am open to most genres, if you have a question as to whether I will review a particular book, please email me.

** I do not accept e-books or PDF's for review. (However I may occasionally post a review of a book I have purchased in that format.)

** ARC's, Galley's and solicited books get first priority and then books I have purchased, won or been given as a gift, etc.

** Any or all of my reviews may contain teasers or spoilers. The beginning of the review will note if that is the case.

** I reserve the right to not post a review if I for whatever reason can not finish a book or feel my readers would not benefit from the information.

Disclaimer: Due to the FTC ruling (which BTW, is open to the question of violating our constitutional rights), let it be known that I do not receive compensation for any books I review. When an author or publisher sends me a book, it is not compensation, it is an exchange for my time(reading the book). It has no bearing on how I review the book. My reviews are simply my opinions, good or bad. A positive review is in no way to be construed as an endorsement of the book on my part. Again, it is merely my expression of an opinion, should anyone choose to buy the book based on that opinion, they do so of their own accord and with the understanding there is no guarantee made as to whether they will hold the same opinion as myself. I do not sell the book after it has been read. Some are given away and some I keep, because I enjoyed them enough to want to read them again. All books received by an author have been noted as such. If there is no notation at the end of the post then the book was purchased or a gift.

Note: any links are provided as a courtesy to my readers for additional information reharding the post and not a suggestion to buy.

If you have any questions, please contact me at cartermartina@rocketmail.com.

All inquiries are welcome and I look forward to hearing from you.



RATINGS:

I rate books from one to five as follows:

1 - Mind-numbing.....I did not like this book and would not recommend it.

2 - Okay...... it was not my cup of tea but someone somewhere may appreciate it.

3 - I liked it, I liked it not..... There were some great points and some part of it I really liked but others left me wanting. Non-fiction: It was consistent, but I may not have found it all that helpful.

4 - You like me, you really do......I liked it and found it to be an easy read. Non-fiction: It accomplished all it's goals and was helpful.

5 - me amour..... I may have to stalk it, bronze it, sleep with it beneath my pillow, I loved it so much! I can't say enough good things about it!!
