Book Reviews

Books are my life. Reading and helping authors brings me joy. If you want a review of your manuscript, please see my Review Policy below and if you feel we might be a good fit, contact me about how we can work together.

Editing Service

If you are an author or publisher needing developmental editing, copyediting, or proofreading of your romance, historical, or fantasy novel please visit me at Grow Editorial Services or message me at kimberly@groweditorialservices.com.

Review Policy

I read historical fiction, any kind of romance, young adult, political thrillers, and fantasy. I adore diverse selections. Books written by BIPOC and authors with perspectives outside the US are also well-received. LGBTQA+ titles are always welcome.

I do not read erotica, horror, or non-fiction.

I review hard copies, ePub, and audiobooks exclusively. If you don’t offer these formats, I won’t be able to give you a review. I live in the US. If mailing a hard copy is too cost-prohibitive, Kindle copies are welcome.

I gladly accept books from self-published authors. Indie authors are my jam!

I try to publish one full review per week. Generally, I am booked out several weeks or months in advance. Please keep this in mind when requesting a review.

I may or may not add your book to my editorial calendar based on whether I enjoyed it or if it is something my readers would enjoy. Mini-reviews as part of a list are also an option.

I will not review a book I didn’t enjoy. However, if there is a glaring event that I can’t abide by, such as portraying mental illness as a means to describe why a character acts villainously, I won’t be able to give you a review.
