Rec FAQ and Policies



How does a book recommendation differ from a review?

Reviewed books are ones I’ve personally read and can offer opinions about.  Recommendations are books I have come across or were submitted by authors that I have not read but may intend to.


Why do you have recommendations instead of reviews only?

This blog showcases obscure books in the hopes of building word-of-mouth for those deserving of more attention.  My genre preferences or pace of reading would limit the number of books listed here, if not outright exclude some.  Ideally, recommendations will give readers more novels to consider than reviews alone would allow.



What guarantee is there that a recommended book will be a decent read?

None, unfortunately.   

The recommendations in this blog are not endorsements, but opportunities to discover obscure ones that receive little exposure.  That said, all recommendations are posted with a synopsis, rating statistics as well as links to Amazon and Goodreads to help potential readers consider whether the book is one they might enjoy.
