Tristin (mythicalreadsreviewer) | 8 comments My name is Tristin, and I'm an avid reader with a wide range of interests spanning from fantasy and general YA to adult fiction, sci-fi, LGBTQ, romance, and mystery/thrillers. Ever since I was young, I've been engrossed in the world of books, always on the hunt for those unputdownable reads that capture my imagination and challenge my perceptions.

On my GoodReads page, you'll find detailed and honest reviews that reflect my love for immersive world-building, intricate character dynamics, and compelling storytelling. I pride myself on my analytical approach to reviews, focusing on narrative pacing, thematic depth, and the emotional resonance of a story.

I'm currently seeking ARCs or books in need of reviews. My preferred formats are physical copies or EPUBs. As a fast reader, I can provide timely and thoughtful feedback, giving authors and readers valuable insights into upcoming releases. You can check out some of my past reviews on my page to get a feel for my style and interests.

I'm passionate about supporting authors, especially in discovering and promoting new talents. Helping bring attention to great books and assisting authors in their journey is incredibly rewarding for me.

If you're an author or publisher looking for a dedicated and enthusiastic reviewer, please don't hesitate to reach out. I love being part of an author's journey to success and am excited about the prospect of exploring new stories and voices. Looking forward to connecting with you and discovering some amazing books!

EDIT: I don't always see/get notifications about comments on this thread so if you are interested please fill out the ARC form I have set up at https://forms.gle/uWnXDT2mV1JTUL629 so that I can get back to you in a timely manner. Thanks!

Dhara Parekh (dharaiter) | 11 comments Hi Tristin. So glad to find you here. If you are open to reviewing, I would love to send a free copy of my upcoming book. It's a collection of five profoundly peculiar short science fiction stories. Feel free to message me if you want more details.

Rudolf Kerkhoven | 5 comments Hi Tristan.

Since you said you're interested in sci-fi, I figured I thought let you know that I have a new dystopian sci-fi novel, The Sacrificed, that is being released on January 23, 2024, through Liminal Books.

A century of climate change has disrupted any sense of a global order, tangling the notions of a developed and developing world. In orbit and nearing completion after half a century of construction is the Tevat, an interstellar ark designed to grant a few thousand believers the chance to start anew on a planet several lightyears away. Funded by the richest man to ever live, the journey will require generations of inhabitants, the initial citizens accepting that they will be sacrificing their descendants to a life aboard a spacecraft in which they can never leave.

The affluent and virtuous Pri Gosal is among those chosen believers. However, after sanctioned launches of passengers onto the Tevat are halted, Pri will be forced to discover just how far she is willing to go to in order to leave this planet behind.

If you’re interested in reading an advance copy, please let me know and I can email you epub file.

Thank you
Rudy

Hi there Rudy! Thanks for reaching out. The book sounds really interesting and like something I would enjoy. Currently I have a few ARCs on my plate that have a similar release date as your own so I wouldn't be able to guarantee that I would finish in time to post a review ON the actual release date for you, but I would be happy to take it on if you are open to a review being posted later.

Feel free to reach out to me via message and we can set something up if you are still interested in having me as an ARC reader.

Alistair Graves | 5 comments Hi Tristin, I've recently published my first book. If you want to try some dark romance with a bit of a twist, drama, thriller and some really twisted situations, I would love to give you a copy of my book.

Hi Indie,

I am pretty full up on romance right now, so I am taking a break from taking them on. If my bandwidth for taking on more romance changes, I will certainly reach out and let you know!

Hi Alistair,

As I mentioned I am pretty full up on romance ARCs at the moment, but when my availability changes I will reach out and see if you are still needing ARC readers! Also just a pro-tip be sure that if you are offering romance novels with "twisted" situation make sure readers can prepare themselves by providing a trigger warning in the book description.

Thanks!

Alistair Graves | 5 comments And thank you, too! I'll think about the trigger warning.


message 13: by Michael (new)

Michael Calabrese | 23 comments Hello Tristin-

I hope you'll consider reviewing my new book - BRACAN’S DAUGHTER -The Cozy British Mystery With Jagged Edges

Bracan’s Daughter combines a tale of ancient magic with a 21st-century British police mystery as two worlds collide - tied together by faith, magic, and murder.

Janyce Bracan, the daughter of an English policeman, was born to find the Stone in the Claw, but she doesn’t know it.

She finds it. She Loves It. SHE FEARS IT. And she’s running for her life as soon as it’s hers.

The Salisbury Police face a bizarre series of disconnected events leading from one mystery to deeper ones as an escalating cycle of violence surrounds Janyce – the daughter of one of their own.

Murder ~ Car Bombs ~ A Bloody Raid on a Police Safehouse
~ A Stonehenge Massacre that can NEVER be Reported.

Ancient hands turn the wheel to drive events in our world, moving the pieces in a game no one knows is being played. Only Detective Sergeant David Bracan will know the truth.

He’s not talking.

I'd be happy to send you a copy of the paperback or you could get the ebook for free on Amazon Unlimited. I've got a good solid synopsis for interested reviewers and you can watch the trailer video on my Goodreads page: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

Merry Christmas and I'm looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Michael

My book is - Hairpins. It is about two young racecar drivers, Niki and Shu, trying to navigate the competitive, sometimes cutthroat world of Formula 1. I wrote this book with the goals of putting the reader into the driver's seat of a Formula 1 car, to educate those who are new to the sport, and along the away the complex relationships of friends, rivals and family wove its way into the pages. It is scheduled for publication May 15, 2024. I can send you a pdf, epub or mobi file. Fell free to contact me at waynekerrnovels@gmail.com Cheers, Wayne A D Kerr

Prelude of Fire: The Gailean Quartet, Book 1

Hello there!! I'm an author of a YA epic fantasy series. Previously published, but I had to leave the publisher last year due to an unfortunate negative experience. So, like my characters, I'm on a quest! I'll be republishing later this year and am questing for early readers for my ARC for Book 1, Prelude of Fire.

Prelude of Fire has found family, a good vs. evil quest, emotional twists and turns, and elemental and musical magic. One reader says it's like "if Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings had a baby."

ARC is available in PDF, Epub, and Mobi.

If you're interested in helping me out, drop a comment or message me here directly. I appreciate any help I can get for a successful relaunch. Thanks for considering!

Here's the blurb to help you decide if you're interested:

A desperate mission. Sinister sorcery. Can she find the seven prism shards to stop the world from being destroyed?

Ashlai, a young Fyre mage who can harness powers of flame from the sun, yearns to know about her kin. Her adoptive elven father refuses to let her travel abroad with her brother, and she despairs of ever knowing who she really is. But when the new king’s vicious spell attacks her forest home, she flees toward that unknown past—and an uncertain destiny—guided only by the strange melody in her head and a piece of broken prism.

Determined to save the land from the enchanted drought burning everything in its path, Ashlai searches for six other magical fragments to overthrow the ruthless king. With the help of a shape-shifting thief, two squabbling bards, and a snarky water elf, she races toward a perilous confrontation…and a life-changing truth.

Can Ashlai fight fire with fire to defeat the devastating spell before it consumes the entire land? And can she survive the secrets she discovers without losing her new friends, her family, and even herself?

Prelude of Fire is the thrilling first book in The Gailean Quartet YA epic fantasy series. Featuring a diverse cast, high-stakes quests, and music melded with magic, you’ll love Schulze’s emotional journey.

Read Prelude of Fire to ignite destiny today!
