This is a speculative fiction review site.
What is reviewed
Every
genre book that we read is reviewed. The hope is that our differing
tastes lead to a wide variety of Sci-Fi and Fantasy being reviewed. We are
reading for enjoyment, and book selection will reflect that, with a mix of new and older books. Mainstream
and Self-Published works will both be reviewed.
How they are reviewed
We
use the Goodreads five star system. All reviews are personal opinion,
but even on books we dislike we will still talk about what worked and
did not for us personally. Also all reviews will also be posted on
Goodreads. If several of us read a book they are reviewed independently, but
placed within the same post.
The rating system
5 star- Personal favorites, either for amazing writing quality or sheer enjoyment.
4 star- Very good books, but with a few flaws.
3 star- Enjoyable books, but with obvious flaws, weak endings, or trite story-lines.
2 star- Good enough to finish, but not by much. Major problems and not enjoyable.
1
star- Reserved for Did Not Finish books. No enjoyment value for the
reviewer (who will still try to explain why it wasn't working in the
review).
A word to Authors
If
your work is reviewed, comments are welcome, either privately or on the
message area after a review. Factual errors will be corrected if
pointed out, but the star rating is not negotiable and will not be
changed. You are welcome to quote any part or all of the review as long
as it is attributed to the appropriate reviewer and a link to the blog
is provided.
Thank you.
