welcome to 'rihaa | a review shop', where you'll get an honest review of your book/s, with constructive criticism when needed.

⇢ n a m e   i n s p o ::

arijit singh's (indian singer) first hindi composed song.

⇢ r u l e s ::

🀙 :: if your book contains any sexual assault scene, please give a summary of the situation (fifty words minimum) here. i'll give you a green signal and only then you'll fill the form. (don't worry, i'm currently active here). if i give a red signal, please just leave the shop politely, i'm not here to ruin my mental health for your not-needed thoughts on how good abusers are. (sarcasm).

🀚 :: please stop reading if you can't handle constructive criticism. thank you. this shop exists so authors can improve themselves. the flowery language will say bye.

🀛 :: please check my "genres i prefer and i don't prefer" list, properly.

🀜 :: if you want more than one book to be reviewed, please wait till i review your first book, then request for another one.

🀝 :: your book should contain 5 (five) chapters except for the prologue, character sketch and all that stuff. this rule is for all excluding short stories, one-shots, two shots, etc.

🀞 :: your book can be in hindi/hinglish/english. a little urdu will be a bliss to my eyes (i love this language a lot!). if the book contains any other language apart from the mentioned ones, please make sure you have added translations.

🀟 :: don't approach through the pm for the review; fill the form in this chapter itself. the password is your forever favourite song, please don't write lyrics. (example: mine is tumse hi tumse by shekhar ravjiani, so i'll write the same when and where needed.)

🀟 𝑖. fill the form from the account in which you have written the book.

🀠 :: the review won't be unpublished. if you want, you can screenshot your review or can ask me to share it through pm by google docs (.docx), so you can add it to your book but credits are mandatory.

🀡 :: payment is a permanent follow. (mention your backup if following from that account). optional payment is a shoutout to this book — means it's completely your choice.

🀢 :: i will vote on the first 2 (two) chapters for you to know that i have started reading your book for reviewing purposes, and i'll vote on the last chapter, so again you'll know that your review will be published soon.

🀆 :: i'll reject your form/s, if:
𝑖. payment not completed. (optional payment excluded).
𝑖𝑖. of a genre i don't prefer.
𝑖𝑖𝑖. i (somehow) already know that that your book glorifies (any kind of) abuse.
𝑖𝑣. you turned a blind eye towards the closed/closed for catch up signs.

🀣 :: in your book's review chapter, you have to vote and comment (at least one) so that I know the review is read by you. and you know your plus and weak points, both. keep this book in your private library, so you'll get updates.

🀣 𝑖. i don't appreciate it when the authors just take the reviews for granted. please refrain from being a grumpy sport and commenting "okay", "thanks", "*any emoji*", etc. if i spend so much time on your book/s, please spare your precious ten minutes for commenting. however, when the review is not well descriptive (i assume it would be when the story has less than 10 (ten) chapters — means, not much content to review), you can just write a simple thank you or anything you'd prefer.
