I see that you, like so many reviewers, are requesting ARCs. Might you not also be interested in reviewing books which are not ARCs?
If so, might you care to try my The Red Grouse Tales

“The four stories in the Red Grouse tales were as entertaining as they were charming, and overall a really fun read. The different narrators of the stories I felt gave each tale a unique nature, and they felt quite different to each other. I read this through once myself and then read it over a number of sittings to a (reasonably) young relative and he enjoyed it just as much as I had. This would also make a good candidate for a book club as many issues for discussion are thrown up in each of the four stories.”

Hi Rebecca,
I just published a book called "Humans of Climate Change"

Climate change communication typically involves endless citing of numbers and reports which makes the topic abstract, distant, and impersonal. The book will take the readers around the world to explore different cultures and climate change impact from a personal and local perspective. From the desolate icefields of the Arctic to the lush green rice paddies of the Mekong Delta, let's go on a journey to discover what we are truly fighting for.
I would love to give you a copy to read.
Looking forward to hearing back from you.
Best regards,
Kaden.

I have an upcoming '80s inspired vigilante crime thriller called Blind Cerulean that needs some reviews. I have free ARCs available at Booksprout and Book Sirens.
Here's the pitch:
On the hellish streets of Acadia, salvation comes in the form of an angel. One who doesn't care much about collateral damage.
Alley is a fifteen-year-old girl with a genius IQ, a self-medicating mother, and an unusual obsession with a 1980s movie star. Alley's never truly questioned why her unemployed mother is wealthy enough to afford a luxury apartment. She's more concerned with collecting '80s memorabilia.
Alley's life changes when a mystery figure known as Coach approaches her out of the blue. He tells her she has a destiny; that the crime-ridden, drug-infested city she lives in needs a savior. And Coach -- a cranky, plainspoken mentor with no tolerance for any slacking -- will train her, make certain she lives up to her true potential.
The girl begins an unlikely career as a vigilante. She runs afoul of local crimelord The Swine, and the mystery figure pulling the gangster's strings. But the true power behind The Swine finds himself drawn to Alley, and as the girl is shocked to learn, is the man who can provide answers to questions she'd never thought to ask. The revelations just might shatter the girl.
I'd love to hear your reviews...

I would be happy to offer you an ARC. The book is scheduled to be published in November. It's a Women Fiction, not really romance but with some romantic elements.
Please DM if you are interested.

They are memorable moving tales about the sometimes unexpected and challenging road to first love: Secret Whispers (a story about schizophrenia), Déjà Vu (a tale about a teen with bipolar disorder), and Of Laughter & Heartbreak (a piece about obsessive-compulsive disorder).

I would be happy to have reviews on those platforms!
Would you like to read a YA historical fantasy about women warriors? The book is called Red Panda Warrior, Jade Mountain
Synopsis:
Xiu has never left her village and can barely make dumplings, yet she finds herself in a secret training academy on the slopes of the Jade Mountain. When her destiny, inscribed in oracle bones, is revealed to her, she refuses to believe it. Put through rigorous training, Xiu must become a warrior, but her movements are clumsy and she is plagued by self-doubts.
While Xiu flounders, Qiao seems to do everything with effortless grace. Xiu grows jealous until she is propelled to act in a way she will later regret.
As the girls around her develop talents, Xiu searches for hers. Though she is not sure how, the red panda holds the key to developing her skills as a warrior.
As an army amasses to invade the Imperial city of Chang'An, Xiu and her elite corps of women warriors must ride into battle. Xiu must overcome her jealousy, face her fears and discover her unique strengths, or her enemy will bring the mighty Tang Dynasty to ruin.
An empowering story of friendship and courage in a lush historical setting with a splash of the speculative.
Red Panda Warrior, Jade Mountain is now up for preorder and will be out 25 October 2021.
If you're interested, I can send you a copy in kindle form.

Hi!
I have 18 ARCS of the 86000 word novel Adaline and the Sphere Book 1: The Crystal and the Curse, available on Amazon Jan 3rd 2022 on Booksprout
https://booksprout.co/arc/76963/adali...
also on Bookfunnel:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Adaline-Sphe...
Blurb:
Adaline has suppressed the mysterious man in her mirror for years, but when her best friend Violet is abducted, Adaline's parents must reveal the truth - she must rescue both Violet and a world they were banished from before Adaline was born. A world where the warlock has lost control, wyverns await the return of their masters, and immortal forevermores remain slaves to a corrupt queen who is cursed by the undertakers of the Sphere - the Night Vapours. Adaline must learn to use her wings and wit wisely to reverse the fortunes of the realm, but with only one day before Violet's execution, she must seek alliances quickly and avoid detection at all costs - she is the Marchment heir after all...
But who is the real enemy in Bodhiasphere? The Queen's bitter twin, who plots to develop a potent form of the forevermore elixir that will ensure his army is invincible? Or the hideous Night Vapours, whose drudgery creates the dangerous by-product threatening the realm's existence? Or is it Queen Doria herself, hell-bent on destruction, whose ultimate power relies on the cursed crystal embedded in her forehead?
Adaline's quest to stop Doria and save her friend leaves her mother's lies and secrets exposed back on Earth. Why is her mother so ill, and how long before Adaline discovers the devastating truth?
The Crystal and the Curse is the first novel in the Bodhiasphere Chronicles series.
Many thanks! I have a mobi file for you but you may have to read on Kindle web?

I have a new YA fantasy romance called The Balance that I would love to get more exposure for. I only have digital ARCs available. Here's the blurb so you can decide if it would be a good fit for you.
Marise never expected to end up at a private school like St. James, but she understands better than most, you rarely get what you expect in life. It turns out a new school, a mysterious new roommate, and befriending a set of twin brothers is just the beginning of Marise’s journey.
Twins Aiden and Ethan couldn’t be more different or more distant. Aiden is determined to put what happened at their previous school behind him and to keep as much distance between himself and his brother as possible. No one wants a sibling who borders on homicidal.
Ethan is adrift and scared of who he’s becoming, but when a new girl arrives at school, he can’t stay away. As it turns out, she might be the one to help him figure out who or what he really is.
What happens when the impossible becomes possible? When everything you’ve ever believed about the world is suddenly turned upside down?
Marise and Ethan are about to find out even if it kills them.
Thank you for your consideration,
Christina
