I have broke this section into four parts: Book Reviews, Product Reviews, Affiliations and Disclosure Policy. While I handle the reviews in a similar fashion, there are some noted differences. The Affiliates section will show some of the blogging groups and companies that I work with. The disclosure policy should speak for itself.
Thank you so much for taking the time to check us out and consider MoonCat Farms for your next promotion.
MoonCat Farms Book Review Policy
Reading is one of my favorite things to do. Nothing compares to a good book! Except for maybe talking about it to others who share your passion for a great read.
I am very choosy about the books I read and decide to review. Besides my own personal tastes, I try to find books that will appeal to my blog readers and followers. Some of these subjects might include: pets, gardening, crafts, some paranormal, some theology, cooking, herbs, green living, horses, historical fiction, DIY, fantasy/science fiction, women's fiction, some romance and chick-lit. For the most part, I will read just about anything that sparks an interest or might fuel a lively discussion. I have found that overall I don't enjoy horror, graphic novels, true crime, politics, and most biographies. I am open to trying a specific book in these genres, but please don't be offended if I choose not to accept a book. My reading time is limited and I need to pick those books that will have the best chance of being a fit for me and my readers.
I welcome all requests for reviews. I prefer to have a giveaway in connection with the review, but will consider other options on a case by case basis. I love to interact with authors in the form of interviews and/or guest posts. I feel this is a great way to further showcase the book being reviewed.
If I don't choose to review a particular book, please don't be offended. That one book may not be a fit, but your next one might be perfect for us. Be sure to keep us on the mailing list.
For the benefit of myself, the author/publisher, and my readers, I like to be able to take my time to enjoy a book and not be rushed to get it finished. Unless we are working on a blog tour or have already pre-arranged a date for the review, it may take several weeks or longer once I've received my copy to get the review written and published. I won't post a review of a book that I haven't read myself.
Click HERE for a list of some of my past book reviews. This will show you my writing style and how I format my posts. I do not like to make negative remarks and will not deliberately slam an author or a book. I do, however, write honest reviews. My reviews are 100% my own opinions and my own words. I like to focus on the aspects of a book that I really enjoyed or got a lot out of. I might mention something in passing that I didn't especially care for in a book, but I won't post a review slanted towards my dislike of it. If I am having a hard time with a book or just can't find something positive to share about it, I reserve the right to discontinue reading it and/or not completing a review.
I like to use at least a cover photo of the book and may use others, including author photos. I will make use of links for locations to purchase the book as well as provide the information to contact the author via website or blog. If requested, I can also post a review on Amazon.com.
I retain the rights to what I have written on my blog. I have no problem with my reviews or comments being used elsewhere as long as there are links back to my blog and I am notified that the content is being used elsewhere.
I hope you'll take the time to get to know a little bit about me and my writing style. I look forward to discussing with you the next good book.
