Rating System, Review Policy, Contact Info

I don't have a fancy rating system, but I am a tough honest reviewer. Here's how I justify my "stars"  (5 stars should be few and far between)


Rating System:
5 stars = Perfect
4 stars = Great
3 stars = Good
2 stars = Hard to finish
1 star  = DNF or Run away


Review Policy:
This blog is run by myself (Jessica) and was started as a place for me to chat about the books I read.  


I read Urban Fantasy, Dark Fantasy, Paranormal Suspense, Sci-Fi, some Paranormal Romance, Vintage Crime, and some Horror/Suspense. I read very little YA, but am open to it from time to time.


If you'd like me to review a book on the site, please email me at thespinecracker (at) gmail (dot) com with your request. I read pretty quickly, but if there is a specific date that you'd like the review to be posted, please include that information in your email.   Epubs (or pdfs) are accepted and encouraged, since bookshelf space is a hot commodity around here. 


**Piracy is a crime, and I will never EVER participate in such a heinous act**
