Revision as of 14:50, 1 October 2014

We're currently suffering technical problems: images from Amazon UK are only downloading intermittently and the Books for Review page which you would normally expect to see has been replaced by this list. Apologies - and we hope to resume normal service soon.'

This is the list of review copies which are currently available to reviewers from The Bookbag. If you click on the image you will get full details of the book from Amazon. Books should be read and reviewed within a fortnight, but in practice we allow three weeks from the date the book is posted. Please don't ask for a book unless you are reasonably certain that you can send a review within that time scale. If you are in any doubt outline the circumstances in an email and we'll decide whether or not there is time available to send the book.

If you're looking for the review submission form, this can be found here.

Please let me have details of the books (including the title and the author's name) which you feel you would enjoy and would like to review, in order of preference. The quicker the response, the more likely you are to get your first choice!

Books are sorted alphabetically by author
