USRB + Eric Hoffer Award Entry Bundle
With their free monthly newsletter of fiction book reviews and nonfiction book reviews, The US Review of Books connects authors with qualified book reviewers and displays their book reviews in front of thousands of subscribers. Reviewing every book and assisting the entire writing community are two things that the US Review of Books is delighted to do. They want to read your novels, but they also want to pay the reviewers. Every work is given equal and fair evaluation by their qualified reviewers, giving all authors prominence. Once completed, your review will be read by the 21,062 subscribers of US Review of Books as well as thousands of other followers on social media and site visitors.
The US Review of Books is different from other online book review publications and reviewers in several major ways. Here are a few reasons why:
1) The US Review carefully cultivates book-reviewing talent, resulting in a consistent staff and publication. Most online review outfits are freelance writer mills. Their reviewers come and go and do not adhere to a particular style, and therefore the writing is uneven and unfocused.
2) All US Review coverage falls under strict guidelines and style restrictions. Reviews are original and written with the entire authority of the US Review masthead. This makes the US Review a consistent and unique publication. There is no reason to drop print editorial standards just because the publication is on the Internet.
3) They are a professional publication with a solid subscription base and a legitimate social media audience. Our dedicated readership and monthly visitors measure in the tens of thousands. Read our article on this subject.
4) We are a top 25 Google search for “book reviews.” Our competitors do not even rank in the top 200.
5) Their reviewers are not randomly assigned books, again like most of our competitors. Reviewers select the books that they desire, which makes for a better pairing of reviewer and book, as well as more insightful coverage.
6) The pages of the US Review of Books have no advertising. Flashing, blinking, and noisy ads for everything from toothpaste to cars are distracting for our readers. In our articles, blog, and editorial, the US Review’s clean presentation is focused on books and book-related coverage. The US Review of Books is the place readers go to find their next book.
7) The US Review of Books is fully compatible with mobile devices. Approximately half of the Internet visitors and potential readers use mobile devices to read our publication, which reflects industry data.
The Eric Hoffer Book Award is one of the largest international independent book awards, attracting books primarily written in English from around the world. The US Review of Books is separate from the Hoffer Award and has no influence over their decisions. They simply publish their results each year, and therefore the published commentary cannot be attributed as an official review from The US Review of Books. The Eric Hoffer Project, which directs the award, respectfully requests that you give fair use when quoting the judges’ published commentary. Please use “-The Eric Hoffer Award.”
