Review Guidelines
We are currently taking requests direct from authors, publicists, blog tour and review coordinators.
If you would like your book reviewed by Literary Wonders! please forward a copy of your book, ARC or galley copy to our address or ask your publisher to forward a copy of your book, ARC or galley copy to Literary Wonders! Attn: Reviews PO BOX 13727, Greensboro, NC 27405-3727. We also accept electronic submissions via reviews@literarywonders.com. If you send an electronic submission, please follow up with an e-mail so that we are aware that your submission has been sent. Any electronic submissions that are not verified WILL NOT be reviewed.
**If the format you submit is in pre-edit status (not final), please make sure you indicate this as although Literary Wonders! does not necessarily make comments about errors found in titles it reviews, it WILL be mentioned errors in those titles that makes it hard for our reviewers to follow the story-line. This goes for all genre; fiction AND non-fiction.
Please allow 4-8 weeks (depending on volume) from time of receipt for your book to be review. PLEASE NOTE that the Summer and Holiday seasons are our busiest times. PLEASE NO PAPER MANUSCRIPTS (unless they are bound-- no 3 ring binders and formatted properly).

- Reviewers select the titles they will review and volunteer their time to read and write a review.
Reviewer Guidelines
Hello Prospective Reviewer,
We review many genres of books including Science Fiction, Romance,
Fantasy, Young Adult, Suspense, Mystery, Urban Fiction, Christian
Fiction, poetry and many other genres. We also review Non-Fiction
titles.
Reviewer Requirement:
Reviewers must be able to COMMIT to reviewing at least 3 books per
month (depending on volume) - You can have up to 3 books at one time
and more if you prove to need more and turn reviews in quickly.
You need to be willing to read e-books and bound manuscript copies -
You must be able to read eBooks in PDF. The industry is changing and
many publishers are going toward PDF copies for reviews. Reviewers
input their reviews online as well as download eBooks via their
account.
New Reviewer Preliminary Period: Will only be allowed one book at a
time per month for three months or until proving you can get fast
and efficient reviews; whichever comes first. You MUST be able to
make your deadlines. Currently we are only accepting reviewers
in the United States.
Review positions are unpaid. In exchange for your review you get to
keep the book you review, but the getting of a free book should
never prompt a glowing review. A review should be based on the books
merit and not on where it came from. We do not allow author bashing,
but it is good to help an author out with information on how they
could improve. Reviews need to be considerate.
Literary Wonders! owns the reviews, however you may use the review
for your portfolio or resume, so long as it is clearly stated that
the review was for Literary Wonders!. You may post your review on
other networks as long as Literary Wonders! (and yourself) is given
credit for the review and a link to Literary Wonders! is provided.
In the case of ARC reviews you can only post to other locations
after the review has been released on Literary Wonders! for 30 days.
All Literary reviewers must agree to not distribute any
eBook
or
ARC
that is provided for review purposes. It's against the law to
distribute eBooks. If you distribute an eBook Literary Wonders! is
not responsible. You are responsible for your own actions and the
publisher can come after you with legal action. By filling out the
form below you agree not to distribute any eBook we provide you
with. EBooks are provided for review purposes only. Reviewers in
violation will be disassociated with Literary Wonders! immediately.
If you are still interested in becoming a Literary Wonders!
reviewer, please fill out the form below and we will contact you if
we have an open position that we feel you would be a good fit for.
