Review Policy

Hi! Thanks for considering me to review your novel.

I am currently open for review and beta reading requests at this time. Prior to requesting a review please review the genres I read and whether I would be a good fit for you.  If you would like me to review your novel please email me at Toni (dot) Border (at) gmail (dot) com. I am also open to novel content editing as well.

Genres I Read

  • Horror / Dystopian
  • Fantasy
  • Classic and Fairytale retellings
  • Adult Literature
  • New translations of Classics
  • Poetry

Genres I do not Read

  • Young Adult (unless you are requesting a beta read or it is a Fantasy novel)
  • Paranormal Romance
  • Erotic
  • Romance
  • Children’s books

Formats I Accept

  • Physical Copy (ARC or hardcover)

I  prefer physical copies as I write in my books to aid when I am writing reviews.

Please Include the Following Information in Your Review Request

  • Summary of the Novel
  • Release date
  • Timeframe for the excepted review of the book and any further information that would need to be included in the review: (picture of the cover, any links for the authors website….etc).

Once I receive a review request I will respond within 24 hours with any follow up questions. I only post honest reviews of books. If I don’t like the book I will explain why I did not like the book. I work off a loosely based star system but I interject my own feelings about characters and plot.

My reviews are posted to my twitter account @Toni_The_Reader and my Instagram account @toni_the_reader. Please note that I only bookstagram books that I have personally read or I am in the process of reading. My photos include elements from the story line or the overall theme of the book.

If there are any questions please email me at Toni (dot) Border (at) gmail (dot) com
