A book review is a gift from the reviewer to the reader and writer. It is a conversation in which the writer is allowed into someone else’s perceptions of their words and it is a way for potential readers to learn about a book they might want to read. It is also a labor of kindness since very few reviewers get paid for their work.
I am grateful to both Claudia Putnam whose review of my book appears in MER online (aka Mom Egg Review) and to Risa Deneberg for her words in River Mouth Review.
