First off, thank you so much for stopping by my blog and checking me out it truly means a lot to me. Second, I need to let you know that I am a full-time college student and sadly I am not the smartest person in the world so that means lots of studying.

3. Let me know if you are or are not a Goodreads author

Rating:
I try to state why the rating is what it is in the review but if there is confusion please let me know.

1 Bat: I could barely get through the book: I rarely give one-star reviews so don't fret I'm fairly easy to please.
2 Bats: I didn't hate the book and enjoyed some aspects of the book.
3 Bats: While I enjoyed the book somewhat I wouldn't reread it but would recommend it.
4 Bats: This comes close to love for me. I find after reading so many books sometimes I become harder to please so take four and be very happy because while it means I didn't love it I will continue reading the series or the author.
5 Bats: It's LOVE! 5 Bats means I would reread this book many times, and would definitely recommend this book and the author to all readers!
1 Big Beautiful Bat: This is a rare rating I give out and it means that I enjoyed this book so much I reread it immediately after I finished reading it the first time.

My Reviews:
I am always trying to change and learn new things on how to improve my reviewing so they differ from time to time.

Sometimes I will go over plot, character, setting, etc. point by point. 

Other times I will do it all in a couple paragraphs.

Or I will do my description of the book in my own words, then my likes and dislikes, and finally my overall opinion.

Where my reviews are posted:
My reviews will be posted on my blog, twitter, Facebook, Amazon and or Barnes & Noble, and Goodreads. I will always try to let whoever e-mailed me know when the review is up with a link.

Interviews, Giveaways, Guest Posts, Blog Tours, etc.:
I am all in for these so you let me know when you send your e-mail and I will be happy to participate.

Negative Reviews:
I hate giving negative reviews as I am sure many other bloggers can agree it sucks. I try to always find the positive in books and when I can't well then I will either contact whoever me and tell them I can not do the review, or be as constructive in my criticism as I possibly can. Again, this rarely happens so don't fret too much.

Bashing:

• I do not bash books or authors, EVER! I understand that a lot of work went into writing every book and while I may not have enjoyed it I get that others might. No author deserves to be bashed just because I didn't like their book.

The Art of Saying NO:
Beginning this blog I had a difficult time saying no. Now? Not so much. However, this is a good thing for you because this means you won't be waiting forever for me to read your book that I wasn't interested in. This is good for you also since you can find other reviewers who are interested and a possible positive review.


Contact Me:
Please e-mail me at reeseseeyore@gmail.com and I will get back to you that same day if I can. Generally, within that first day or two, I will e-mail you back so you won't have to wait too long.
