At BookFoodLanguage, every review is guided by the principles of honesty, transparency, consistency, and respect for both authors and readers. The following outlines what publishers and authors can expect when providing a review copy.
1. Review Copy

currently accept hard copy (physical) books only
for review.
2. Honest Review
- Every
review is honest, unbiased, analytical, and
independent.
3. Review Timeline
- Reviews
are normally published within 15 days of
receiving the book.

of the published review will be emailed to the publisher or author for
their records.
4. Review Format
- Each
review is approximately 500 words.
5. Disclosure
- Every review
carries a disclosure statement acknowledging the source of the review copy.

Rating Policy
I follow a consistent editorial rating policy
across all reviews.

reflects my commitment to maintaining credibility, avoiding rating inflation,
and ensuring a fair and uniform standard for every book reviewed.
Additional Review Requirements
If you require:
- A review
with a promotional tagline

review or Instagram Reel in addition to the written review

other specific review or promotional requirement
Please communicate these requirements at the time of sending the
