I am open to receiving Advance Reading Copies and Review Copies of books from both authors and publishers. If you would like to request a review from me, please fill out the form at the end of this page. I am now able to accept Kindle-compatible ebooks, as well as print versions. Because of the nature of the blog (and my own preferences) I will read and review a book of any genre (Fantasy, Romance, Teen, Science Fiction, Mystery, etc.) as long as it contains a hint (smidgen, dash) of romance. I understand that what constitutes a “hint” can be subjective, so I’ll leave that up to the, er, beholder. The only exceptions to the genre rule are as follows:
- Christian/Spiritual books
- Erotica
- GLTB fiction
Reviews specifically requested by authors and publishers will contain:
- A picture of the book cover.
- A description of the book provided by Goodreads.
- A list of previously published titles by the author (this list may only be a partial one if it is long).
- If applicable, a list of the books related to the book being reviewed (either in the series, or companion novels)
- If requested, a picture of the author.
- A concise and thoughtful review of the book, according to my own opinion and without the influence of either the author or the publisher.
Any review that is published here on Ruby’s Reads may be posted on Goodreads, LibraryThing or Shelfari. Authors and publishers are welcome to link to or quote from my reviews as long as they include a link to my blog.
I am also available for:
- Guest posts (exchanging and one-way)
- Book tours
- Friendly book-related chats
To request a book review, please fill out the form below. I will not respond to unsolicited emails or review requests unless they are received through this form. If you cannot see the form, click HERE.

“Expectation is the mother of disappointment”
I would love to make THE 13TH TABLET available to you as a NetGalley or send you a printed galley – which ever you prefer.
Best wishes,
Barbara Schwepcke
I’ve just read my first Georgette Heyer mystery, Footsteps in the Dark, and loved not only the book in general, but especially the characters. Wondering if in her subsequent 11 myserties she again used the same characters? If so I’d choose to read those first, so would like to know, if you could tell me. Thanks!

Not really. Some of the characters make reappearances, or are mentioned, or are related to earlier characters. The only recurring characters are the detectives: Hannasyde and his subordinate (I can’t remember his name). I can’t remember how many (or which ones) they appear in.
