Reviewing Policy
If you are an author or publisher who would like to send me a YA or middle-grade book, ARC, e-book, or audiobook for review, please email me at melissa.higey@gmail.com. I have extensive experience reading YA and have my master’s degree in library and information science with a focus on young adult services. I have worked in publishing, previously, and also as a copyeditor, and currently work in the digital distribution industry. I have been reviewing books on blogs for several years now. This blog has continued to grow since it’s creation, and currently receives about 500 unique hits a month (with every month adding more and more).
- I will consider primarily YA fiction for review, however I am open to reviewing YA nonfiction and adult fiction that could have crossover appeal to young adults, especially fantasy. I would also be interested in reviewing graphic novels and manga.
- I will review every book I receive, as long as it is expected. I can’t promise to review unexpected books, but as long as I can fit it into my schedule (I am a student after all) I will review.
- You can read my blog for my review style-I tend to be positive. However, I will be honest.
- I don’t make any money from this blog, it’s simply for mine and my reader’s benefit. The opinions stated on this blog are mine, and mine alone, and especially not my employers’.
- I am also interested in author reviews, giveaways, and contests. I’d be happy to work with you to promote a book!
Thank you!
