We have changed the format of the Forthcoming Updates page as it was becoming too unmanageable with so many variables involved.

If a book has been sent in to BookLore, by an Author or Publisher, it will now either appear on the list or not.

If a book is included on the list it means it has been received and forwarded on to an interested reviewer and we are fairly confident of a review being returned. The list is not in any particular order and a review will appear as and when it is received back from the reviewer. In the past we have tried to provide a timescale but this has simply not worked.

If a book is missing from the list it is awaiting a suitable reviewer, has been rejected, has been subject to a Negative Review, is unsolicited, etc. We endeavour to review all books submitted and a book may well appear some considerable time after submission if a receptive reviewer is finally found.

Unfortunately, for reasons beyond our control, even when a book has been sent to a reviewer and they have agreed to submit a review this sometimes does not happen. It is possible, therefore, for a title to appear on the list and then be removed without a review being posted.

If you have any questions about a book you have submitted please send an email to submissions(at)booklore.co.uk.

Please be aware that submitting a book does not guarantee a review will be posted. Any books submitted to BookLore are sent free of charge and are not returnable. The BookLore Editor's Decisions are final.
