Bite into Books

Hi there! My name is Esther, I'm a 25 year old teacher from The Netherlands. Since I started this blog, I've been getting requests to review books. I've made you a Q&A to be sure we speak the same language.

For The Love Of Words

I typically review the following genres: fantasy, urban fantasy, historical fiction, dystopian/post-apocalyptic, horror, and mystery. I read Adult Fiction, YA Fiction, and select Middle-Grade Fiction as well. I accept digital (epub, mobi), physical copies, and audiobooks (I prefer receiving audiobooks via Audible format). My reviews are honest, subjective, and in accordance with FTC guidelines.

Confessions Of A Book Addict

I try to be fair and honest in my reviews. I will always highlight both the positive and negative aspects of a book. Additionally, I post my reviews on Goodreads and I link it to my Twitter account as well as my blog's Facebook page. I use a five star rating system.

The Future Fire

We will consider all subgenres of speculative fiction (and related nonfiction), regardless of author or medium, including self-published work, but we are especially interested in seeing more books by and about women, people of color, LGBTQIA, disabled people, people with nonwestern languages and religions, and other under-represented groups.

Worlds In Ink

I prefer to review print copies of books whenever possible. I am also able to review EPUB formatted ebooks by special arrangement. Print copies will be given precedence due to the cost involved in getting them to me.

Regency Reader

As much as I love other romance genres, the focus of my blog is Regency. (If you don't know what Regency is, please see this). In other words, please don't submit your sci-fi, memoir, Medieval romance, contemporary romance, etc. If you have a Regency or Regency related book (like a relevant non-fiction) feel free to fire away. I typically respond to requests within 2-4 weeks.

I love reading sci-fi, fantasy, dystopia, urban fantasy and post -apocalyptic books. I have been known to pick up a romance or two from time to time, but NEVER in the contemporary or historical genres. I don't read YA, children books or nonfiction.

Gut Reaction Reviews

While I read ebooks, I do prefer printed books. I read both fiction and non-fiction. In fiction, I read most genres with the exception of romance, fantasy, science fiction or young adult. If you write in those genres, then I am not the reviewer for you.

Books In Brogan

I enjoy reading somewhat eclectic range of book, but I especially enjoy reading paranormal, science fiction, fantasy and contemporary romance in both adult and YA books. I'm not a huge fan of horror I also don't read much erotica or anything overly graphic, abusive or with a blatant amount of excessive violence.

Book Angel

Bookangel started as a London bookclub's private site to swap book recs and highlight free books. It opened to other users a few years back after realising that there weren't many sites that focus on UK readers.
