In late 2020 I started reviewing for Rosie Amber Book Reviews for fun and networking and exposure and all those responsible things that authors who actually want to sell their books are supposed to do. That also means that I have a library of content that hasn’t been posted here for inexplicable reasons, so here they are. Posted months after their initial appearance on Rosie’s blog for… reasons. All the reasons.
Please don’t contact me about reviewing your book, I’m not looking to get into the vetting game. Contact Rosie here, and she can decide on that.
On this page you’ll find a range of anthologies, fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and everything in between. Some good, some bad, some excellent. Such is the mixed bag that is book reviewing.
The plan is to post a review every other Wednesday, at least until I’ve exhausted my existing review library, but we’ll see what happens.
Cheers lovelies!
