Submitting your Book for Review 

Women’s Review of Books reviews women’s studies scholarship and fiction, poetry, and memoir by women. We welcome review copies and consider all the books submitted to us carefully. We review more nonfiction than anything else. There are far more wonderful books out there than we can hope to cover; our reviewing decisions are based on a combination of factors including the quality of the books; the balance of articles in each issue (we strive to review a diverse array of books in many fields, genres, and styles); and the interests of our readers and reviewers.

Please note that we generally do not review the following: genre fiction; self-help books; inspirational autobiographies; self-published fiction, poetry or memoir; poetry chapbooks; scholarly or literary magazines; reference books; textbooks; children’s or young adult books; fiction or poetry by men. Save your review copies of these kinds of books for more appropriate publications.
