Review Policy

B:

Aja is currently open to receiving ARCs and review copies of books. My genre of choice is Intermediate & Young Adult (Contemporary, Historical, and Speculative/Paranormal). Within these categories the only thing I will not read is dystopic fiction without zombies. Please do not send me a zombieless apocalypse–otherwise, anything is fair game!

Other genres I will consider include:
- Graphic novels and Manga/Manwha
- Queer Fiction (Literary, Contemporary, & Romance)
- Romance (Historical & Contemporary)
- Speculative (Horror/Fantasy)
- Mystery (Contemporary & Period – no procedurals, please!)

I am easily persuaded by a great premise, so if you think I’d like a book, feel free to ping me even if it doesn’t fit into one of the categories described above. I am a fan of small press and independent publishing houses, and would love to receive well-written e-pubbed or independently pubbed books, especially if they feature ethnically/geopolitically diverse main characters in addition to strong plots.

Unfortunately, I cannot promise to review every book that I receive for consideration; however, I will respond to all queries for reviews sent to me within one week, and I will do my best to review any book whose query I accept.

My review copy preference is for e-books, followed by print copies. Digital ARCs/review copies will be read first and faster, and thus reviewed more quickly. Preferred document format is .epub or .pdf.

Thanks!
