I have a real love for Crime Fiction and thrillers as I love a little (fictional) human suffering from time to time, but don’t mind the occasional bit of Chick Lit, Young Adult or romance – I’m not completely heartless and consider myself an equal opportunity reader.

WELCOME BOOKLOVERS! I’m Jo, an Aussie book reviewer. I started this website in 2009 and quickly realised I enjoy writing and blogging about books almost as much as reading them. Hope you enjoy browsing my book reviews & following my reading adventures.

BookPage reviews almost every category of new books, including literary and popular fiction, nonfiction, children's books, audiobooks and gift books. We rarely review poetry or scholarly books, and we do not give review consideration to self-published books, print-on-demand titles or books from presses that lack major distribution.

Genres: I will only read and review books that peaks my interest. Books from the erotica genre will be featured on my sister book review blog site: Jersey Girl Sizzling Book Reviews. My favorite genres are: Chick Lit, Contemporary Romance, Women's Fiction, Christian Fiction and Mystery Suspense Thrillers. I do not like Children's's Books, Poetry, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Paranormal or Horror books, please do not send me a request for review for the books in these genres.

Hi, my name is Jo and I love reading which is why I set up My Chestnut Reading Tree in February 2016 so I could share my thoughts about the books I read with the world! I read mainly crime and psychological thrillers but I also love women's fiction...basically I just love a good story and will review most books apart from sci-fi or horror.

We've reviewed over 1,750 books on Amazon since 2009. We promote quality ebooks and authors, post author resources, and we've sponsored the annual "Kindle Book Awards" since 2012 with industry pros like Digital Book Today, K-Boards, Author Marketing Club, Bargain Booksy, and others.

I started my book blog as a way to have a presence as an editor online, but started enjoying reading and reviewing so much more than I thought. I am based in Australia, so I am always eager to learn about new Australian authors. Currently my favourite genre is crime, whether it's adult fiction, YA or NA. I'm a fan of urban fantasy and contemporary reads as well.

I've been reviewing books for a great deal longer than that though. I'm now a Top 500 (352 when I last checked‰Û_) and Vine reviewer on Amazon UK, always additionally copy my reviews to Goodreads, Amazon.com and sometimes publish on the Waterstones site too.

I am currently open to review requests but I'm being selective in what I accept due to running this book blog alongside dealing with medical stuff. I like to read most genres of book but my favourite genres are: contemporary fiction, literary fiction, women's fiction, thrillers, crime and mystery, young adult, chick lit/lad lit, and biographies.
