Turns the final version of the rules posted in May were not final
Not least because they were specifically for Rediscovery reviews.
Current version:
A: You can buy a review for a book for $100 (or by supporting my Patreon: see its page for specific details).
B: Authors may not buy reviews of their own books nor can their family members, publishers or agents. I have the right to decline any book; this is not to be taken as a negative comment on the author or book.
Authors may point out to me that their qualifying books are now out and while I cannot promise to read said, there will not be a charge if I do.
I reserve the right to break my own rules (except for B because, wow, can authors buying reviews go horribly wrong fast).
