**Jazzy Book Reviews now has a guest reviewer. She has her own preference of genres to read. Please see below.**
I reserve the right to decline a review request if I feel the book is
not my cup of tea. Please respect that. Thank you!
Please do not send me unedited copies. I am an editor/proofreader,
and I find myself distracted by books that have not been properly
edited. It usually means I will not read your book, or finish your
book if I start it.
I always leave honest reviews on my blog, Amazon, and Goodreads.
I do not receive any sort of compensation for my reviews. I
do them because I enjoy reading, and I enjoy helping authors. However, if you would like to offer a small donation, please feel
free to click the button below.
Also, please respect my opinion if I do leave a low rating/review. It is nothing against you as a person or an author.

Jasmine's Review Time
I sometimes get swamped with things, so it could take me
anywhere from 2 days to a month to read your book. I usually try to
have reviews posted 6-8 weeks after receiving a book. Please
understand that I am a mom, and I have job-related things to take care
of, so I don't always have time to sit and read quietly.
If I do not finish a book, I will contact you and let you know that I
was unable to finish. This only happens if the book ends up not being
my cup of tea. I try to avoid not finishing books, but it has happened
on very rare occasions.
Guest Reviewers' Review Time
My guest reviewers can usually have a review up within 3-6 weeks, but possibly a lot sooner.
