Contact Me/Review Policy

Review Policy

As an enthusiastic book reader, I am happy to hear from authors and publicists about review opportunities. I have written over 400 reviews that can be located on this blog.

I am willing to review books in the following genres:


  • Christian fiction
  • chick lit
  • YA (some Middle grade books)
  • contemporary/literary fiction
  • historical fiction
  • women's fiction
  • memoirs

I do not read or review the following genres, therefore please do NOT send me an email asking me to review the following:
  • non-fiction
  • children's books
  • romance
  • westerns
  • science fiction
  • horror
  • fantasy
  • paranormal
  • erotica
  • self published books
  • e-books

Due to the number of books I receive, I am selective of the books that I choose to review.


My usual turnaround for a book review once received is about 2-3 months. The exception is for blog tours which will be posted during the day or week of the tour. I do send out an email once I have posted my review. I usually also post my reviews on Amazon, BN.com and Christianbook.com as well as LibraryThing. I am a top 1000 reviewer on Amazon and have also had my reviews used as endorsements in several books. My reviews will be honest in accordance to how I felt about the book. I cannot guarantee a positive review but I will give an honest review. I do not sell ARCs.

Starting on October 6, 2009, I began disclosing where I received my books from. If a book states that it is from a publisher, publicist or author, then I received a free copy of the book to review. This however does NOT affect how I reviewed the book. I do not receive any compensation from reviewing books. I am a participant in Amazon.com's Associate program which the majority of the links to books on this blog are directed to.

If you are interested in having me review a book or have any other questions, please email me (Deborah) at beatccr@hotmail.com.
