Submitting Books for Our Consideration -
TEMPORARILY CLOSED (Nov 2011)


Due to an overwhelming quantity of books submitted for our consideration, we are currently closed to submissions, please check back here regularly. We do not only review brand new books so would consider a book after it has been published.


Please send information about any book you would like us to consider for review to reviews@theshortreview.com.

If a reviewer is interested in reviewing the book, we will contact you and ask you to send it directly to them. Our reviewers are situated around the world, please  make it clear if you are unable to send books to reviewers who are outside the country you are based in.

A few guidelines:
  • We only review short story collections and anthologies. No poetry. No novels. No novellas. No single story chapbooks. No literary magazines. No art books with some writing in. Only short story collections.
  • We get so many requests that we cannot guarantee to review your collection, but we do our best.
  • We only  run 10 reviews in each monthly issue, and so if we do agree to review it, the process will take several months, sometimes longer.
  • We do review self-published collections as long as they have been professionally edited and some of the stories in the collection have been published elsewhere. We do not review vanity published collections, or Word documents.
  • We love short story collections but each review reflects the reviewer's subjective opinion, and may not be as glowing as the author or publisher would like. This is the nature of reviewing. Sorry.
