Book Reviews List
This is where we keep a list of book reviews we read and ready for reviews. While we only maintain it for our book reviewers, its important that users like yourself can use them to see what type of books we have reviewed and what other books are yet to be published. It costs us little effort and to publish it on the Web so join our book review team and start publishing your own reviews on this site. Making it publicly available has also been useful as a spur to encourage us to keep up to date.Usually the reviews will be positive or only somewhat negative. This isn't because I'm particularly easy to please, but because I'll only write entries for books that I actually finish. Since life is short, I won't grit my teeth and struggle on through a bad book, but will fling it aside -- often with great force -- and move on to something better. (This is why I've only read about 100 pages of Anne Rice.)
You can browse the list by title (full listing), author (full listing), subject, or in chronological order. There's also an index of recommended books.
