Writers Review

Book reviews by writers or independent booksellers, with occasional special features. We choose our own recommendations: fiction, non-fiction, memoirs, poetry, nature writing. We hope you'll enjoy our selections and keep coming back for more. Follow us on Facebook, X (Writersreview1) and Bluesky (@writersreview.bsky.social). Our new venture, Writers Review Publishing, launched in April - see website link in sidebar and Q&As with the authors.
