A little about the reviewers. . .

Tia

I will review books which fall under the categories of YA, - with the main character being no younger than sixteen or in some circumstances fifteen- NA and adult books - where the protagonist is no older than thirty and would not be married (unless at a younger age) or have children. I usually try to maintain an age limit between fifteen and thirty as it is easier for me to relate to characters within this age group as I am in my early twenties. I will, however, stray outside this age group if the character is either extremely mature for a teenager or an adult over thirty who is kind of a child at heart.

With regards to genres I will review books that fall under Fantasy, Supernatural, Paranormal, (some) Dystopian and Contemporary Fiction. I will read horror or thriller/crime books if the book captures my attention but I usually don't read within those genres.

I do, however, have a reader that will review Adult Romance books outside my own age limit and another that will review Thriller/Crime books.

I hope that I have provided all the information needed. For general questions you can contact me at: theshadowrealmt@gmail.com but please fill out the form for review requests.

I review mainly YA and NA books where the main characters are at least sixteen. I will also review some adult books where the character is no older than 30 and doesn't have kids or is not married. This helps me to relate better to the characters. I sometimes make exceptions to this, however, in the case of Urban Fantasy/Paranormal books.

I review Paranormal, Dystopian, Contemporary, Thriller, Fantasy, Urban Fantasy, and some Sci-fi. I do not review middle-grade, autobiographies, non-fiction and books with strong religious themes.

The majority of books I read I like to have some element of romance in them as I am a romantic at heart. Does not have to be main focus of story.
