DISCLAIMER REGARDING REVIEWERS AND BOOKMOJO’S SERVICES
The BookMojo Book Blog now has a review team 20+ wonderful bookworms strong. Although they’re on the same site, our author services have no impact on the content of a review on our book blog. All reviewers are required to give a fair and honest assessment of any books they review on our blog, regardless of origin. BookMojo Book Blog nor any of its individual reviewers receive any compensation for reviews.
Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Disclaimer
In accordance with FTC Guidelines for blogging and endorsements: The books reviewed on BookMojo are purchased by the reviewer, borrowed from the library, or obtained from the author and/or publisher by mail, email, NetGalley, or Edelweiss. BookMojo does not receive any monitory compensation in return for the reviews and/or endorsements which appear on this site. Receiving a copy of the book in exchange for a fair and honest review in no way affects the review as it is the reviewer’s opinion of the book.
All Amazon links featured on BookMojo are Amazon Affiliate links. If a purchase is made via one of those links, we make a small percentage of the sale. Please see Amazon’s Affiliate website for details.
Review Turnaround Time
Our current review turnaround time for self-published, independent, or small press titles is unknown. We get approximately 500 review requests per month. We go through them as soon as they come in and eliminate the ones for authors who clearly didn’t read our review policy. For the remaining requests, they are sent out to our review team. If one of the reviewers is interested, we will email you back to request a copy of the book.
IF YOU HAVE A REVIEW DEADLINE (i.e. upcoming publication date), please let us know in advance and we will try our best to accommodate.
If you would like to submit your book for review, please read the full policy first.
Instructions for submitting your review request can be found at the bottom of the page.
BIG FIVE / TRADITIONAL PUBLISHERS: Reviews are posted either on release day or within a week or so following the release of a book (provided we receive the review copy in a reasonable amount of time). See section titled ARC’s & Galley Bound Copies for further details.

BookMojo reviews are written from a fair, honest point of view. Please remember, the opinions expressed are the reviewers’ opinions and represent the reviewers’ personal tastes. BookMojo allows multiple reviewers to review any given title, thus offering varying opinions.
ARC’s & Galley Bound Copies
We gladly accept advanced review copies (ARC’s)/galley bound copies to review, as well as books which have been released already. If you are sending us an ARC/galley copy for review, we will try our hardest to get the review up on, or very close to, the book’s release date. Just remember, if you want a review done by the book’s release date, we need enough time to plan on the book being in our schedule.
We happily accept print copies. However, we encourage publishers and authors to contact us before sending a copy. This allows us to reach out to the team to make sure there is someone interested in reviewing the title before you waste the time and money to send us a copy.
Print copies can be sent to:

BOOKMOJO IS REGISTERED ON BOTH NETGALLEY AND EDELWEISS
Please contact us prior to sending a NetGalley or Edelweiss widget. Several members of our review team are registered, and, depending on who will be reading your book, you may need to use a different email address for the widget.
We happily accept ebooks for review. We are not opposed to the advancement of the electronic age! However, we do not have every ereader on the market. The formats we can accept are as follows:
– Kindle books (gifted from Amazon or .prc files)
– PDF (Portable Document Format)
– .mobi files
– .epub files
Audiobooks
Here at BookMojo, we happen to love audio books. As much as we would love for BookMojo to be our full time job, that is not the case. Audiobooks allow us to “read” while at our day jobs. That’s eight hours of reading time every day we would not otherwise have. If you have your book available as an audio book, and would like it reviewed, we would gladly accept it. Just email us and we will work out the details.
Ebook, Print, and Audiobook Pirating
Books supplied to BookMojo, whether it be physical, audio, or electronic, will never be duplicated, sold, rented, or otherwise distributed in any way by BookMojo or a BookMojo staff member without written permission of the author and/or publisher.
Our Rating System
Our reviews are written in a simple format with no star ratings:
– What We Liked
– What We Didn’t Like
– Who We Would Recommend The Book To
This allows the person reading the review to still form their own opinion on whether or not they would like to purchase the book.
Review Submissions
If you would like to submit your book(s) for review, please fill out the form below. Once your book’s info has been received, it will be sent out to our review team. If anyone opts to read your book, we will contact you back to request a copy. PLEASE NOTE: Submitting your request does not guarantee a review.
