Who is reviewing the Books?
The book reviews you find at Home of Reading might be written by one of several people. With the exception of those tagged in Andy’s Corner all of the reviews will be mixed together. When viewing the full review you will find the reviewers name directly under the title of the book as well as a small blurb about that person who reviewed that book. You can also find a listing of books only reviewed by that author by clicking on their name.

Where are the reviews posted?
We syndicate our reviews out to several sites including Goodreads, Amazon, Booklikes, and Google Books. We also post on several social media sites when a new review or feature goes up to let people know that a book has been reviewed. These posts are usually on Google+, Facebook, and Twitter. If you want to be notified when a new review goes up, those social media sites are your best bet.
