Book Review Requests

You can email me review requests at Erik@thiskidreviewsbooks.com .

I review picture and middle grade books. I do review some YA books, but I have to let my parents look at the content of them first before accepting a book. Books sent to me should only have minor bad language, no graphic violence or anything else an eleven-year-old shouldn’t be reading. It takes about 7-8 weeks from the time I get a book to review to when the review is posted (may go quicker in the summer when I don’t have school).

When sending me a book review request, please let me know a little about yourself and a description of your book. Authors can also send me “real” books and I will send my address when I respond to the review request. Although I like “real” books more, I have a kindle to review ebooks (MOBI files please, PDFs don’t work well). I usually let authors decide which one they want to send. I cannot accept every book I am sent because of a full “to be reviewed” list. I do reply to every email I get so if you don’t get a response, I didn’t get your email.

I post reviews on my blog, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords (if it’s an indie) and GoodReads.  I rate books on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and GoodReads using their star system and I use my bookworm rating for my blog (see MY RATING SYSTEM).

I appreciate every book review request I get and I really wish I could read every one, but I am only one kid! I do often refer books I can’t review to other kid book reviewers.

Thanks,

Erik

    Very cool blog you have here. I have a middle grade science fiction title coming out on February 11th. I’ll certainly contact you when I can send you a copy! :)

      My link above is not going to the correct place. I’ll have to fix that. For now, my actual site is gutsandglorybooks.com :)

    You commented on my book The World of the Polka Dot Bear on the KidLit site. I love your blog and would be honored if you would do a full review of my story.
