Here at BlueCastle, the rating system is arbitrary, capricious and slightly despotic. Although usually it revolves around marks out of 5, if wine has been involved, ratings can often degenerate into food comparisons.

BlueCastle site is maintained for enjoyment, discussion and of course books!

We (of the royal), accept ARCs from reliable sources, otherwise, books are borrowed from public libraries or purchased.

If you would like BlueCastle to review a book, plse contact – but bear in mind, like Seneca the Younger, we speak in the language of truths, unvarnished…..so – you may be disappointed…

BlueCastle inhabitants are generally introverts, and as such, don’t host blog tours, promotions, giveaways etc.

But commentary and conversation is ALWAYS invited.
