I will also accept authors who are self-published. I will accept ARC's, physical books, and MOBI (Kindle Files). A kindle copy can be gifted as well.

   *****Please Note*****
Requests must be made about books that can be purchased somewhere. If I can't provide a purchase link for my readers, then a blog will not be posted about the book. (This does not apply to ARCs that obviously haven't been released yet.)



GENRES I WILL ACCEPT:


general fiction
mystery thriller (suspense etc.)
horror (paranormal, ghost story etc.)
true crime
romance (paranormal)
christian fiction

Humor



NO EROTICA.

I truly do love to read and if your genre is not listed here, please feel free to inquire. I usually will give all books a chance, especially if the story peaks my interest.

But I am very serious about the NO EROTICA  I just don't read it. If I receive a book or PDF with it I will immediately cease the review.

WHAT THE REVIEW WILL CONSIST OF:


A brief synopsis of the book
My full review with what I think about the book
A rating of the book. 
A picture of me with the book (if i read a PDF then I will just post a picture of the cover)

    Rating Scale



    Since I am a Bakery Manger by day I figured my scale should be something I could relate to.
    So I have created the Delicious System. Obviously I won't be eating your book, but I can give it an equivalent. So here is a more detailed description of my scale.

    MY DELICIOUS SCALE
    A WEDDING CAKE: [5 STAR EQUIVALENT]
    UNBELIEVABLY INCREDIBLE AND DELICIOUS!


    If your book is just jaw dropping and complete amazing you will receive a beautiful wedding cake.

    A BIRTHDAY CAKE: [4 STAR EQUIVALENT]
    GREAT. VERY NICE.

    If I enjoyed your book and was pleased with the outcome then you will receive a pretty birthday cake.

    CUPCAKES: [3 STAR EQUIVALENT]
    GOOD. SIMPLE.

    If I thought your book was good but felt it needed a bit more and was a little plain, then you will receive these simple book lovers cupcakes.

    A SINGLE COOKIE: [2 STAR EQUIVALENT]
    JUST OK. 

    Your book wasn't enough for me. It was lacking some way or another. Maybe it needed more sugar or chocolate chips.
    If this was my conclusion then you will receive a traditional chocolate chip cookie.


    A BURNT COOKIE: [1 STAR EQUIVALENT]
    BAD.

    I'm sorry. This was bad. It's that simple. If I thought your book was bad and I couldn't digest it, then you will be receiving my burnt  cookies.


    I will do my best in not being harsh when giving an overall score for the book. I would rather not give out any cookies, burnt or choc. chip. But in the advent that I do give a low score, please don't take it personal. It is not.....

    Can't wait to read and review your book!!!! ^_^
