Spots Unknown Under the skin of San Francisco

Book Review Policy

The books I am currently interested in reviewing are pretty specific in content, as per the focus of this blog: non-fiction, historical, photography, and travel books (including all guide books) related to San Francisco.

I do my best to publish a review within 1-6 months from the day I receive the book in the mail. If the book is an ARC, I try to publish the review on or around the release date.

Sending me a book for review does NOT guarantee a review. I will, however, pass the book on to a friend if I cannot read it myself – usually another blogger, but sometimes not.

I review every book in which I find bloggable material for my readers, and I write honest reviews. That means that if I legitimately found problems with a book or aspects of a book I did not enjoy, I will say so. I do my absolute best to put a positive spin on my reviews and try to find something nice to say about every book I review, even if the review is negative overall (though in most cases, such books will garner no post).

I’m happy to participate in book tours and love doing giveaways. I also enjoy doing author guest posts and author interviews. I will post reviews on other sites (such as Amazon) by request, although I don’t usually do it by default.

All requests should be sent to me directly via the form below. Thank you!
