I love books. I review books because I love them, and I want to share what I think, regardless if I liked the book or not. I don’t blog professionally, nor read books for a living (how I wish, though), so I do all of this in my spare time, which sometimes, isn’t a lot. But I like what I’m doing, and I do this to share my passion of books.
I will be very happy to accept review copies from authors and publishers. My blog is also open to blog tours, contests and author interviews, just as long as I read get to read the featured book first. I can’t guarantee that I’ll like the book, but I will definitely read it and give it a fair review. 
PREFERRED GENRES:
I love chick lit, contemporary YA and literary fiction, but right now I’m learning to love fantasy, dystopian, paranormal, mystery, thriller and maybe a bit of science fiction. Books with Christian themes are always welcome, since I like to read about my faith. I’m lukewarm with political, nonfiction and historical fiction, though.
I’m quite picky with my series reading, which means if a book is a part of a series, I have to read it in order. If the books can stand alone despite being in a series, I can probably try it out, but I’d prefer if it’s complete.
I welcome both print and ebook versions of books. Since I live in the Philippines, it’s often hard to ship books here because of the expensive shipping fees and customs issues. I use Stanza and Kindle for iPhone for ebook reading and I can probably find an app to read an ebook if those apps do not support the file format that you may have.
DISCLOSURE:
Currently, all the books I review here are books I bought. In case of a review copy, I will indicate it in the review that it was sent to me for review. I am affiliated with The Philippine Online Chronicles, where I review certain books in the Pinoy Pop feature. I get paid to do these reviews, but I only choose books I own to review for my contributions.
