Great site. Keeps me informed of upcoming book releases as well as emerging authors.

You report on books you can’t easily learn about elsewhere.

Love being introduced to new authors.

Fabulous vehicle to learn and read about new authors and which books are recommended by BookTrib.

Website is easy to navigate. You tackle subjects others won't.

BookTrib has impacted my life so positively, I wish more people knew about it.

It is the quality ... Your reviewers take the time to read a book, make an assessment and explain WHY they did.

Just please keep it going! I work full-time and it is my guilty pleasure.

The information is concise and easy to understand.

Enjoy learning about books I probably wouldn’t have considered reading and have purchased them and enjoyed them!

BookTrib offers valuable marketing support to writers.

It's a great community where people aren't slagging books, writers and denting everything they touch. I love the idea of mindful (versus hype) appreciation.

One of my favorite sites.

I like your monthly book club recommendations and try to read some of the books to suggest to my book clubs.

Your social media videos keep you from being like every other book account. Keep them going.

An informative and excellent resource which I depend on and enjoy greatly. Wonderful books, authors, reviews and features.

Staffed with knowledgeable individuals ... As the leader of our local book club and an author, the efforts of BookTrib on behalf of authors is appreciated.

Trust is key and the BookTrib folks have never let me down. It's been great to have found these good people where worry is not in my vocabulary.

As the former owner of a children's bookstore, I very much appreciate what you are doing for our current and future generations of readers!

After my book was reviewed on BookTrib, my sales jumped dramatically.
