Books for review 

We are currently overwhelmed with review copies and are taking a break. Check back to see when our submission re-open.


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.
