Thank you for considering me to review your book. I look forward to hearing from you. 

Some things to consider:   I am based in Pretoria, South Africa. I accept hard copy books, e-books, and audiobooks – please contact me for a delivery address for any hard copy material. Currently, I receive advanced review copies from NetGalley, Penguin Random House South Africa, Jonathan Ball Publishers and NB Publisher.

I welcome self-published authors as well as publishers. Submitting a book for review does not guarantee that I will review it. I also cannot guarantee that a review will be up by a specified date. Feel free to discuss any specific requirements and I will try to meet your needs where possible.

I love sharing my thoughts on a new book and I pride myself on being completely honest.  My reviews start with a summary of the story (usually the official summary) followed by my opinion. My reviews are informal and based on how I feel about the story. At the end of each review, I like to include a brief Meet the Author piece with a link to the author’s website. Please make sure to send me this information along with your review material.

My First Choice Reads:

  • Psychological Thrillers
  • Thrillers
  • Crime
  • Mystery

What I Do Not read:

  • Erotica
  • Romance
  • Non-Fiction
  • Historical Fiction
  • Biographies
  • Poetry

Other than the above, I am pretty open-minded.

How to request a review:

Drop me an email at zelda@featzreviews.com with a short synopsis of your book, including what review format is available, a cover image and if you have any specific deadline requirements as well as a link to your website. If your book has a YouTube trailer send me the link, I can add that to the review.  I will get back to you as soon as possible, please keep in mind, I usually have my nose in a book.

I look forward to hearing from you and cannot wait to discuss your latest master piece.
