​

✧ Please be aware that I prioritize BIPOC or Queer authors and stories because those are the books that I am generally interested in anyway. I do not prioritize them just because they are marginalized authors/books but because I genuinely enjoy those stories.

✧ If you would like to contact me about a review copy, feature, or partnership, you can reach me through email: themoonwholistens@gmail.com or through my Instagram

✧ I am an honest reviewer and will review your book just like any other book. You can check out my Goodreads and my ReaderRank on BookSirens to know more about my tastes.

✧ I read and review both physical or digital copies (including audiobooks) of either ARCs or finished copies here on my blog as well as on Goodreads.

- I also post physical ARCs and finished copies on my Instagram

✧ I leave my reviews here on my blog, Netgalley (if possible), and Goodreads, please understand that I am no longer leaving reviews on Amazon

✧ Sending a review request does not guarantee a review. I get sent at least 30 books a week for consideration and I can never get to all of them between reviewing/blogging/Instagramming as this is not a full-time thing for me and I do this as a hobby, just like a lot of other reviewers. I prioritize replying to requests that I am interested in and will be accepting. That being said, being a marginalized author or story does not guarantee acceptance either.

✧ Please do not email me asking how to send a review request and if you can send me a book pitch, as I get too many questions just like this for me to reply to each one. Simply send details such as: Title of the book, Author, Genre, Publishing Date, and all the other details that a reviewer would need to know (book pitch) so I can consider the book in your initial email. This is for practicality purposes and saves a lot of time for all parties concerned.

- I am not the right person to ask how to pitch a book

✧ I reserve the right to not reply or ignore review requests at my own discretion.
