If you're a publisher or publicist, I'd love to work with you.
I review only YA (young adult) books.
I'm happy to read ARCs or ebooks and am very active on both NetGalley and Edelweiss.
In 2012 I reviewed 120 books. You can find my 2012 review archive here .
In this post is a statistical breakdown of the books I reviewed in 2012 by genre, publisher, etc.
I track my blog stats through Google and also Statcounter. As of April 2013, I received about 13,000 page hits per month and about 1700 unique visitors a month. I have about 2100 RSS subscribers, including 600 by email.
Twitter: 1400 followers
Goodreads: 901 friends
Facebook blog page: 711 likes
I am happy to email you copies of my most recent stats.
No book is for everyone. If a book or ARC you send isn't a good fit for me and I don't finish it, I always try to pass it on to another reviewer in the hope of finding a better fit.
If you're an author interested in contacting me about reviewing a book, please note that I accept a maximum of one indie pubbed book a month, depending on my review calendar. Feel free to email me and I'll get back to you. I book about two to three months ahead. I don't read self-pubbed fantasy. If I accept your book for review and don't feel it is a good fit for my blog readers, I'll email you and give you the option of a Goodreads review.
About Me:
I've been reading reading YA since 2008.
In college, I majored in English. I'll try pretty much anything that's well-written and keeps me turning the pages. Not crazy about zombies or high fantasy. But I make exceptions -- a good book is a good book.
Reading or writing are the only things that get me to sit still. Otherwise, I'm walking the city streets, looking for inspiration. Kid and/or dog-wrangling. I'm a professional eavesdropper. Standing in lines drives me crazy. When I was little I dreamed of being a detective.
Okay, I'm amazed you're still reading this. But if you really are interested in me, I've posted about myself twice. Because I had to. Here and here.
Finally, like all bloggers, I work hard on my blog. For free. Unauthorized use and/or duplication of this material without my express and written permission is strictly prohibited. Excerpts and links may be used, provided that permission is granted (by me) and credit is given (by you.)
If you read the blog, you know how much I love revenge stories! Don't make me come after you!
