MY REVIEWS INCLUDE:

My review starts with cover art of the book and a summary from Goodreads. The book review itself is typically +/- 500 words long, and includes my thoughts and opinions of the setting, plot, characters and writing. There are 3 additional sections: My Star Rating, Book Details + links where to buy and About the Author.

I currently do reviewing and blogging as a hobby without receiving any compensation. If that should ever change, I will let you know by stating it clearly in the blog posts. The thoughts and opinions expressed in my reviews are honest, uninfluenced and completely my own. I will not change content posted on https://randiloves2read.blogpost.com to suit advertisement interests of any kind.


MY RATING SYSTEM:

1 Star: I did not like it and would not recommend it

2 Star: It was ok, unlikely to read again or recommend it

3 Stars: It was good and I liked it. I would probably recommend it

4 Stars: I enjoyed it and likely recommend it

5 Stars: It was amazing and I will definitely recommend it
