How I Review
I mainly read and review YA fiction, but I'm willing to try MG, NA, and adult fiction in certain instances. I make an effort to review books as soon as I read them—this means that ARC reviews will be posted once I've read the book, not necessarily close to the release date. My reviews tend to be long-ish and rather opinionated, with the occasional GIF. I also cross-post my reviews on Goodreads.How I Rate
I rate using a 1–5 star system, as well as a brief summary of my thoughts in words to accompany my rating.5: OH BUT EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ THIS. I'd totally buy this book and have no qualms about recommending it until I explode.
4: I really enjoyed this book, but I might not buy it. It’s still much better than most books and I do recommend it.
3: This book was satisfactory but nothing special to me. My feelings about it are firmly in the meh zone.
2: There was more bad than good here. If you show this one to me, I’m going to back away with a frown on my face.
1: Probably wouldn’t hesitate to burn this one.
