Hello! Please send all requests to ellereadsig@gmail.com

Giveaways
I am happy to host a giveaway for you! My criteria for hosting giveaway books is the same as that for review books. If you would like me to host a giveaway for a book, please be sure to include the following information in your request:
- Title/Author

- Shipping requirements (US, US/CA, or International)
- Run time of the giveaway
- Any additional information you would like included (photo of prize, blurb, signed, etc.)
Star Rating
I rate books one a 1-5 scale. I use half stars.
- 5 - amazing book, an experience readers will not find anywhere else
- 4 - great book, an experience readers may experience in other reads
- 3 - good book, perhaps a few basic writing letdowns or left little impact after finishing
- 2 - okay book, finished it even though it was a trudge at times
- 1 - eh book, almost DNFed it but didn't for some extraneous reason (This rating has never been given before.)
Accepting Books
Accepting books for a review does not guarantee a review. I will make every effort to review books in a timely fashion with regard to release dates. I prefer to receive a book 4-6 weeks prior to when you would like the review posted.
I will write a review for every book I finish. I write very thorough reviews and usually include 1-3 posts. However, if while reading I feel that this book does not blend well with what I usually read or is something my followers will be interested in I will not finish the book nor review it. If that is the case I will immediately contact the author and/or publisher that gave me the book so we can discuss possibly doing something else to promote the novel such as an author interview or a preview of the novel.
I write fair and honest reviews. This does not mean I will always write positive reviews. My reviews are my opinion. With that said, I always try to explain why a novel didn’t work for me without being rude or defamatory to the novel or author.
