Review Policy

**Due to my editing schedule, I will not be accepting as many review requests. Thanks for understanding!**

Please read the following information before submitting your review request.

My favorite genres:

• paranormal and urban fantasy
• YA and New Adult
• fantasy

I only accept print copies for review.

I reserve the right to giveaway (on this site) any print copies received for review, unless requested otherwise by the author/publisher. Due to the high number of review requests that I receive, it is impossible for me to reply to each and every one of them.  I will only reply to the requests that I am interested in.  If you do not receive an email from me within one week of submission, it is safe to assume that I need to pass on your book at this time.  That said, don’t be surprised if I contact you months from now about reviewing your book.  Priorities and schedules change, so there is always a chance that I can review it in the future. I am always willing to feature you and your book with guest posts, giveaways, excerpt posts, interviews.  Please use “Request a Feature” in the menu at the top of the page  if you would like to be featured.

It is important that you realize that my first obligation is to my readers.  I provide honest opinions, including negative reviews.  I will not pull a review or change the content after it is posted.

I reserve the right to stop reading any book that I do not enjoy.  IF this happens, I will post a short blog entry stating why I didn’t like it and how far I got before stopping.

All content on Fade Into Fantasy is copyrighted and owned by me.  If you would like to re-post any part of your feature on my site, please include a link back to the post and/or the Fade Into Fantasy site.

I do not guarantee any sort of time frame for a review.  If the book submitted is a future release, every effort will be made to post the review around the time of release, but this is NOT guaranteed.

I have no objections to reading/reviewing self published books.  If I have the time and the book interests me, then I’ll read it. I might email you to request the first chapter of your book if I’m having trouble deciding whether to review or not.

Feel free to submit a request for backlist books. Older books need love, too!

Rating System:

5/5  - Phenomenal read that will stay on my shelf forever! Seriously, you will likely have to pry this from my cold, dead hands!

4 /5 – Liked it!  Not enough to marry it, but definitely worth reading!

3 /5 – Enjoyable!  Maybe borrow it before committing yourself to a purchase.

2 /5 – Ugh.  I couldn’t finish it but managed to make it more than half way through.
