Hello there! Thank you for stopping by! Would you like to get your book reviewed by me? Or maybe an interview or another promotional request? Then please read through this page, to see if we’re a match. Please send me a message to Info@MorteReads.com or contact me through instagram.
Keep in mind that I am Dutch, and English is not my first language. I do not do test readings in order to catch grammatical or spelling mistakes. If you are looking for a test reader like that, I reccomend finding another reviewer.
I am currently accepting review and collaboration requests.
I will always put my honest opinion of the book in the review and disclose that I have been provided a review copy.
What I accept: I generally read books with a dark vibe. The genres I enjoy are, but not limited to: Splatterpunk, Horror, (Dark) Romance, Young Adult, (Dark) Fantasy, Thriller, Dystopian, New Adult, Manga, Graphic Novels, LGTBQ+ and occasionally (Dark) Contemporary. Erotica and darker topics are almost never a problem for me. Please include a trigger warning list in your request.
What I will not accept: Children books, Recipe books, Fanfiction, Poetry, Nonfiction, Biographies (with very few exceptions), Self-help. I will also not accept cover reveals, guest posts. Give-aways are only accepted when paired with a review and the shipping costs are for the requesting party.
I have the right to deny your request as I see fit, but will always reply to your e-mail and include my reasoning. This could include, but not limited to, time restraint, your book not being a match for my interest, having too much review copies on my to do list or other personal reasonings.
I accept ARCs and finished copies, in both e-books and physical copies. Please keep in mind that the physical copy has to be send to the Netherlands, Europe. Shipping costs are to be covered by the requesting party. Adress will be provided after accepting the request. E-books have to be compatible with a KoBo E-reader, this include Epubs and PDFs.
I am available to post my review on Goodreads, Amazon, Storygraph, Instagram and my blog. Please include the locations you would like the review posted in your request message. All reviews will be posted on my blog.
Each of my reviews follows a consistent pattern with the same information. I will always try to read and review your book before the release date. Please send me your book 3 months in advance and include the release date in your request. Keep in mind that this is not my day job and that real life happens. My reviews range from 500 words to over a 1,000 words. I can not give an exact number on this because it depends on how much I have to talk about.
I can not guarantee that I will write a positive review for your novel, but I will always try to be as positive as possible while remaining honest. This being said, if I didn’t like a book I will always explain why in the review. Never will I include nasty comments. The tone of my reviews is informal. This means that they resemble a chat between friends and may contain sarcastic comments, jokes, and the like.
Each of my reviews will contain:
*Please provide basic information through e-mail. With the exceptions of the ratings, opinion and memorable quotes.
Quotes from my reviews may be used by authors, publishers, publicists and anyone else involved with the ownership, production or publication. Please credit me by using my name (Morte Midnight, or just Morte) and/or my website.
If you give me a book to review, you are accepting these policies and the fact that I may give you a negative review. I do not accept requests where a positive review is required or expected. My opinions are my own.
You can find the book ratings and spice ratings on the Rating System page.
Reviews on my instagram page will include a self-made picture fitting my overall aesthetic and are only available for physical copies and digital copies that include a cover page. Digital copies will be photographed using my KoBo E-reader.
I also accept other types of collabs, like interviews. Blog Tours are only accepted if they do not include a guest post. Give aways are only accepted when paired with a book review. The shipping costs are for the requesting party. I am always more than happy to discuss possibilities with you!
