2016 Year in Review

I hope you all had a good year. Amy's Bookshelf Reviews is looking forward to 2017. This past year, there has been a growth in popularity. Where that seems like a good thing, the waiting lists of this past year has taken longer to get to. Now, I am working on getting through the waiting lists and will post as soon as I can. I do my best between reading for reviews, and enjoying the books I read (yes, I truly write honest and unbiased reviews) and working on my own writing projects. 

REVIEWS: There has been a slight policy change in reviews, as I have a preferential list for requests. I'm not sure if that policy will continue moving forward, but for now, it's UPCOMING release dates (which means future and not PAST dates), repeat authors (once I've reviewed one book of yours, you are a repeat author), and then waiting list. I am also keeping all my TBR (To Be Read/Reviewed) on my blog so you can see where I am. Books only get deleted from the list or checked off when the review is completed and reviewed.

UNCAGED MAGAZINE:
I have been honored with contributing to "Uncaged Books" Magazine, which is an e-zine dedicated to promotion of authors and book reviews. I send EIGHT of my monthly reviews to the magazine and those are published. If my review of your book has been published in this magazine, you receive an email from me with the link.  (Uncagedbooks.com)

I was honored to be not only a contributor but a featured author (as well as a review of my book "Smashed: A Savvy Macavoy Story" was written in the December issue).

I look forward reading more of your work in the future, and for those who are new authors to my blog, your book is still on my list. 

 

Happy New Year from

Amy's Bookshelf Reviews
