Hi! Welcome to my book review policy! In my book reviews, I like to write all about the book and where it comes from. If it comes from a series, I will list out all books in the series. Then I write about my thoughts of the book. My reviews are short and sweet. I like to highlight the main points that stands out and the things that busy my brain with long after I finish reading the book. I will NOT write a lengthy review in which I scrutinize and dissect every aspect of the book because I find that very boring and too much to read. All of my reviews are SPOILER-FREE.
My Ratings
5 Stars – Most awesome read, with intelligent characters, humor, cleverness, romance, flirt, makes me laugh/giggle out loud, and keeps me up at night and unforgetable. A fast paced, page turner, couldn’t put down kind of read. Heart-pounding, mind racing, and holding my breath kind of read! haha..
4.5 Stars – Excellent read with minor setbacks. I like to read different characters’ point of views. Fast paced, page turner, but lacking something.
4 Stars – Good read with missing details. I like to know all about the characters and their backgrounds.
3.5 Stars – The book is either bland or has potential to become better. Need more character building, story needs more developing. More excitement.
3 Stars – The characters are not so smart and clever. Not exciting and humorous. Bland. Misspelling.
No books below 3 stars because I am unable to finish it. Once I lose interest, it’s hard for me to push through just to finish it. I feel there are so many great books to read, why bother waste time reading a not so interesting book?

My Reviews are posted in: My Blog, Goodreads, Amazon, NetGalley, Edelweiss, Books-a-Million, and Barnes & Noble. I also do shout out on Twitter and Instagram.
Reason for Physical Book Preference: The reason I request physical copy is because I used to read a lot of ebooks when I first started blogging and I developed vertigo and heard weird noises in my ears. I went to see an urgent care doctor a few times and ENT doctor for treatment multiple times after that. I didn’t know what caused it but I never had it before so I thought maybe it’s the reading. I started reading physical books after that and lately I noticed that I don’t hear random noises in my ears anymore and I can lay down on one pillow to sleep instead of a couple of pillows like the ENT doctor prescribed and I don’t feel the dizziness anymore. It was scary times to go through all that jazz.
Thank you for visiting my blog! I hope you find it useful!
