Quoting Reviews:
Any quote of a review must credit the reviewer and The Florida Book Review, quote only briefly, and, if online, link to the page where the review appears.  Reviews may not be quoted at length or in full.  Reviews express the opinion of the reviewers and not necessarily those of The Florida Book Review. All work © Copyright The Florida Book Review 2007-2021.

We would like to receive NEW books with Florida-related subjects or Florida settings.  No self-published books, please, and nothing that is solely an e-book. Review copies should be sent to:

Reviewers:
If you would like us to add you to our roster of reviewers, please send us your bio and areas of interest. If you have a specific book you'd like to review, be aware that we do not allow reviews by anyone who is closely acquainted with the author of the book. Review queries and submissions are only accepted via e-mail. Please query us by e-mail first to make sure that the book has not already been assigned to someone else. We review only books that are set in or written about Florida.

Guidelines for reviewers:  Book reviews should be between 400-750 words. Reviews should include what it's like to read the book, style considerations, brief plot summary without plot spoilers, information about the characters, setting and genre, and a quote or two from the book.   For more information, please contact: [email protected].
