48HBC is done for me :(

Well, I didn't do as well as I'd hoped:

books: 4
pages: 1327
time reading: 12:32
time blogging and stuff: 2:00
giving me a grand total of 14:32 hours

Not overly impressive, but maybe my last weekend to run errands before a cross-country trip wasn't the best timing for me either. I had fun though! And this definitely put a dent in the pile of books I was thinking about trying to fit in my carry-on!

For authors and publishers:

I'm currently not accepting ARCs or review copies as I'm struggling to maintain a one-in, one-out book balance in my home. That said, I primarily review young adult fiction, though some middle grade fiction and adult fiction with teen appeal also slips in. My favorites are science fiction, fantasy, and any YA literature with positive LGBTQ themes or characters. I try to post reviews of upcoming books a week or two before they are published; published books will be reviewed as soon as I am able. My reviews are also posted on LibraryThing and Goodreads. I try to point out something good in every book, but not all of my reviews are positive. The only time I won't post a review at all is if I cannot bring myself to finish the book. I never sell ARCs or review copies, but I may pass them on to other librarians, book bloggers, or readers unless expressly asked not to do so.
