“The Book Review Directory’s Editorial Reviews are exactly as advertised. They provided me with an insightful, unbiased review of my book with honest feedback that I can’t always get from friends and family. ” -Scott M. Madden, author of The Mouse Thief [to read all 79 testimonials, scroll down below the order form on this page]
Here’s what authors have to say about The Book Review Directory’s Editorial Review service:
“The Book Review Directory experience was spectacular! I read some of their other reviews when finding their site and loved how descriptive, interesting, and well-written they were. I could tell the reviewers on staff take their time reading the books, and it shows. I knew I had to use their services. It was clear to me they take their work, and the work of authors seriously; not because they’re tasked to do it, but they love reading, and helping indies. I received my review fairly quickly, and it still hails as one of my favorite reviews today. Their honest, masterful, professional, op-ed style is for anyone searching for editorial reviews.” -Sabrina Simon, author of Violet
“Marketing your book can be very time consuming, stressful, and expensive. I’ve used a handful of pay-for services and The Book Review Directory has been my best investment so far. The Road to Continental Heart was reviewed right away and the reviewer clearly had read the book and understood it. It’s a complex, hybrid book with lots of elements and the reviewer’s description was clear and thorough and picked up on the contributions these various elements make to the reader’s experience. It’s well written. But most important for me, as someone who used to make a part-time living reviewing plays: the reviewer serves the reader, not the writer. You finish knowing what the book’s about, what it has to offer the reader, and whether it’s worth your time and money. I’m glad to say that he or she thought my book was, but I have the clear sense that honesty and service to the reader was her or his primary interest.” -Steven Dale Davison, author of The Road to Continental Heart
“The Book Review Directory did a very complete job for me. They spent real time reading my book and blurb, and then they gave me useful feedback. I contacted them on a few occasions with questions, and they were prompt, friendly and clear with their answers.” -Dave Maruszewski, author of Raven, Romda and Ravai: The Dark Beast
“As a new author, I wanted an honest, in-depth editorial review of my debut novel, The Keepers. Family and friends can be wonderful cheerleaders, but let’s face it: we can’t always trust they’re being completely honest. I wanted an independent expert in the business to critique my plot lines, characters, pace, setting, and how my book stacked up in the marketplace. The Book Review Directory delivered. They were on time and their assessment proved invaluable. I highly recommend their service and will hire them again.” -Tan Van Huizen, author of The Keepers
“Working with The Book Review Directory was simple, affordable, and totally worth it. There is something liberating about getting an honest opinion from someone who reads a lot and doesn’t owe you anything. I know that sounds strange, but it is valuable to get an honest review that mentions what you do well and what could be improved. And it’s validating when a reviewer of this caliber likes your work. I’m really glad we chose to work with them and will certainly opt to do so again.” -Amanda Quintenz-Fielder, author of Möbius Syndrome: Catalyst
“I’ve been using The Book Review Directory for over a year and I have only positive things to say. I’ve had my books reviewed by over 20 sites and BRD is by far the most comprehensive, well-written, longest, and well-thought out review. The team with BRD showed great clear communication, fast responses to any messages, a beautifully displayed review page, faster-than-expected delivery, and generally overall great initiative and a wonderful overall attitude. I’ve used both the longer editorial and the paid display ad services and have found everything BRD does to be exceptional and well worth the money. I’m very pleased with the end result. I highly recommend BRD to all authors and readers, and will use again. 5 out of 5 stars, no doubt.” – M.J. Roberts, author of Rock Hard: Chord Brothers Series
“Their service is exceptional and the price affordable compared to everywhere else!” -J.J. Sorel, author of Take My Heart
“The Book Review Directory’s Editorial Reviews are exactly as advertised. They provided me with an insightful, unbiased review of my book with honest feedback that I can’t always get from friends and family. The ‘money’ quotes and exposure that they promised exceeded expectations as well. Communication was prompt and courteous, and the review came in well before the estimated date. The BRD is great to work with, and I will definitely avail myself of their services again in the future!” -Scott M. Madden, author of The Mouse Thief
“The Book Review Directory provided me with a professional, thoughtful review, one that I am proud to display on my Amazon sales page. Having such a well-written and honest review ready to post at the same time my book was released has helped boost sales and gives my book a valuable credential. The turnaround time was great, and the team is professional and courteous. Thank you!” – Martha Reynolds, author of Villa del Sol
“I reached out to BRD for an editorial review of my book. I didn’t know what to expect while waiting for a response to my initial contact, but didn’t have to wait long. What followed was quite amazing. They reached out to me to ask a few questions and I sent him a PDF of my book. After a few more emails back and forth he gave me a hard date as to when I could expect the review. The review came back earlier than expected and I was quite blown away by the conclusions and observations that were made. No one on the team knows me personally, and yet, they nailed the perspective I was coming from and who my audience is intended to be. Their review was thoughtful and professional in every way. It provided an overview to readers in several ways that I hadn’t considered which I am quite grateful for. It also gave me some unbiased feedback that I am planning to use to improve my writing moving forward. I highly recommend this group for this service and am looking forward to having BRD review my future work as well.” – Rio McKee, author of Real Raw Hope
“BRD is truly wonderful to work with. He goes the second mile and advocates his clients like no other I’ve worked with. I highly recommend his services.” -Julieann Dove, author of Searching For Sarah
“As a writer I not only want people to read my work, more importantly, I want them to identify with and recognize the purpose of my writing. The Book Review Directory’s review of my Novella did exactly that. I felt as though my goal had been accomplished. The review was written in a concise and objective manner and covered not only the central theme of my story but the complexities of my characters. The advice that was offered to me was right on target and caused me to begin a short rewrite which I know will improve my narrative overall.” -Lewis P. Horwitz, author of The Necklace

“I recently self-published an anthology and was needing an editorial review service. After investigating my options via search engines and various writing blogs, I found The Book Review Directory in a Goodreads thread. After looking over the website and evaluating their previous editorial reviews, I decided to give them a shot. Because I had negated to secure an editorial review prior to releasing my book, I decided to utilize their expedited review option. I can honestly attest that The Book Review Directory met or exceeded all my expectations. Not only was my review ready ahead of the quoted date, it was in-depth and informative, as well as honest and critical, as any good editorial review should be. Further, the response to my questions even after the review had been posted was timely and very appreciated. The best compliment I can give The Book Review Directory is that I will be using them for my future writing projects, and will recommend them to any fellow writers, as well.” – Abraham Lopez, author of Going Gone
“The Book Review Directory offered an unbiased, thoughtful review. Having feedback from someone other than family and friends gave me further insight into my work. The review was honest and will be used to improve my writing. The turnaround time was great, and the team is professional and courteous. All I can say is that BRD is a service I look forward to using again. Thank you!” – Nia Markos, the author of Elements
“I was so glad to discover the BRD’s editorial review services. Their fee was very reasonable, and they were friendly, quick to respond, and helpful in answering my questions. I was pleased with how the review came out weeks in advance of the date I had been given. It was clear that the reviewer had read my memoir in its entirety, was attuned to its themes, and gave it considerable thought. The analysis was thorough, and actually gave me additional insights! I was able to choose pertinent paragraphs to post on my Amazon page. I highly recommend this service.” – Anne Bernard Becker, author of Ollie Ollie In Come Free: A Memoir of Swallowed Time
“Book Review Directory provided a fair and timely review for my debut novel. It was clear the reviewer carefully read the book and weighed the pros and cons of the plot, characters, and overall story against other books of its genre. In all respects, it was professionally done, and I have included it on my book’s web site, Amazon page, and Facebook entry.” – Dave Cohen, author of Executable File
“Yeah, yeah, I know, get all your friends to write 5-star book reports, all the cool kids were doing it – but I wasn’t interested in that. I wanted to hear some solid, honest critique, kind of like when you get a tattoo on the back of your head and you want to make sure the artist didn’t make it lopsided. Not that I have any tattoos on the back of my head, yet, but I digress – sometimes art needs reflection, so that you can find the parts that are not great yet, and fix them. That’s exactly what I got from my editorial review and blurb coaching – a friendly mirror showing me what I’d overlooked, and what I got right the first time. I’m very happy with this service and will probably be returning in the future.” -Charon Dunn, author of One Sunny Night
“The Book Review Directory is an efficient and professional organization. It provides you with an honest, thoughtful, and timely evaluation of your book and features it on its website in an attractive manner. Moreover, it’s not a one-shot deal; after the initial launch, the review and cover remain available to visitors by scrolling down the website. “ -Charles Ameringer, author of The Sons of Hernan Garcia

I will definitely consult him again with my next book.” –Eva Maria Schwarz-Pretner, author of A Boy Like You and Me
“BRD is a writer’s friend.” – Kelly J. McMullin, author of With Eyes Wide Open

I couldn’t be more satisfied.” – Steven M. Wells, author of Yes Means Yes
“As an author of the recently published technology book Enterprise Digitization Patterns, I was looking for a credible, unbiased review–a constructive critique of the good and the not-so-good of the book for my readers. I turned to The Book Review Directory’s editorial review service. I was not disappointed in what I received. They were professional from the word go as they set clear expectations on what I would get from their service. As my book is in the technology genre, I liked the fact their editorial review appealed directly to the readers of the book in a “no-nonsense language,” i.e. what the book delivers, the key constructs of the book, the delivery of key constructs with some details, the type of audience who can get the real value of the book and more importantly, what the book can improve on. I would use The Book Review Directory again for my next published book!” – Srikanth Narasimhan, author of Enterprise Digitization Patterns

As the name suggests, BRD delivered a thorough, honest, and helpful review of my novel which gave me confidence and helped ratchet up my sales page.” -Dwayne Gill, author of Written By Blood
“After my novel, “Vykup-A Novel of the Koldun” was published, I was inundated with offers for marketing, reviews, etc. I was apprehensive about many, so I did my own research and found the highly regarded: Book Review Directory. My review request was quickly answered and after being given direction on what was offered and expected of me, the process proceeded just as quickly and even more important, easily. The team there was professional and knowledgeable. My review was done three weeks sooner than the time frame I was initially given and again, I received a very professional and insightful review. The reviewer picked up on even small nuances in my writing, for which I was very grateful. I was also provided with suggestions on how my work could have been better, I was grateful for that as well. I will be using this service again when my WIP is finished, I know the input I receive will make my next novel better. I highly recommend The Book Review Directory if you are looking for an honest, professional review. ” – Andi Marchal, author of Vykup: A Novel of the Koldun
“I had a great experience with The Book Review Directory for my very first book. I spent quite some time researching various review services. Some of them charge hundreds of dollars. I came across BRD and the price was affordable and the reviews online looked like they were of high quality. So, I took a chance and requested a review. I know from experience there are some shady review sites out there, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I must say that I was extremely pleased with the end product. BRD delivered within about 8 days and the reviewer clearly read the whole book and offered some thoughtful insight. The review was well-written and thorough. The money spent was well worth it. They delivered quality well ahead of schedule and were pleasant to work with. Would definitely recommend.” – Will Lowrey, author of Chasing the Blue Sky
“As any author knows, book reviews are essential to promotion and reach. But for the self-published author, getting that book reviewed can be a long and arduous road. I recommend The Book Review Directory. I’ve used it to obtain a thoughtful, fair, and well-written editorial review of my novel, one that I can post on the Amazon page for my book. This review has proven to be tremendously successful in helping a potential reader decide to purchase my book. The editorial review is as professional as anything you’d find from a similar service (the one that costs hundreds of dollars). I would suggest that any author looking for a comprehensive and balanced review of their book contact BRD.” -Martha Reynolds, author of April in Galway

“Like any author, I was eager to get my latest self-published novel, Longevity, in front of readers, but was frustrated by the usual problem—how to attract readers without reviews. Placement in NetGalley is effective, but slow. Editorial reviews from Kirkus, etc. are very expensive and also slow. The Book Review Directory was recommended by a respected public relations firm, so I gave them a try. Turnaround time was phenomenal; I had a well thought out and well-written review in about a week. That allowed me to add an excerpt to the book’s back cover and Amazon’s editorial review section, which is the first thing the reader sees, right away. Not only was the review fair, but the reviewer captured the tone of the book as well as subtle bits that indicated a thorough and informed read. It was a 4-star review , and I was pleased to get it. The Book Review Directory will be my first stop when New Haven, my next novel, is finished in 2022.” -Rolf Margenau, author of Longevity
“Using the editorial review process offered me the opportunity to obtain another perspective on my finished work. As a writer, it certainly helps to have an external point-of-view beyond what is in my head. As such, The Editorial Review, as an organization, afforded me an external, professional voice which I could then use as an assessment from another reader’s/writer’s perspective.” -Nadine Roach, author of Remembered Paths
“I tried Book Review Directory and was very pleased with the service. My request for a review received a prompt response, and the review came in less time than initially estimated.

If you are looking for an Editorial Review of your novel, Book Review Directory is well worth considering.” -Caroline Davis, author of Night Vision
“My book was reviewed by all major editorial book reviewers, and I can tell that The Book Review Directory was the fastest and most responsive (they were always there when I had questions). Also, their editorial review was one of the best too! Finally, The book Review Directory provided great quotes for marketing. In my case, the quote “Deceptively simple and almost terrifyingly accurate, it is an unflinching examination of what drives human beings…” was the best among all editorial reviews. Highly recommended!” -Sidney Mazzi, author of The Art of Hunting Humans
“I am very pleased with the results of my Editorial Review. The reviewers were fair and objective and highlighted some of the best features of the book. Here’s hoping for more book sales following this good review.

“In order to attract more attention to a book published a few years ago, I decided to order an editorial review. I was thrilled and gratified to find that the reviewer provided me with a fair, comprehensive, and thoughtful review that pinpointed both strengths and weaknesses of the manuscript in a way that was helpful and constructive. I would recommend to anyone trying to publish that they obtain such editorial reviews. One can learn an enormous amount, and it helps to sharpen one’s writing.” -Malve Von Hassell, author of The Falconer’s Apprentice
“For debut authors like myself, navigating the world of self-publishing has not only proven to be slightly scary—but at times—also a frustrating endeavour.

I can say without hesitation that I will be working with them again in the future!” –Brandon T. Keaton, author of Transference
“I was looking for an editorial review for my novel, Unlawful Presence, and found The Book Review Directory website. Compared to other more well known sites, BRD is much more reasonably priced and they gave me a fine review in a reasonable amount of time. I’ve used other sites, and often times the reviews they provide don’t seem relevant to the actual content—like the reviewer didn’t really read the book. But not so with BRD. I could tell their reviewer actually read the entire book and enjoyed it. I’m using a sizable excerpt on my book’s Amazon page, and I think the BRD review has helped me sell copies. I would recommend their service to anyone.” -William A Lasher, author of Unlawful Presence
“The Book Review Directory was very pleasing to work with, and I am surely satisfied with the quality of their services and their commitment shown in their consistent customer service as well as communications.

“I am a scientist who was awarded six patents. When the U.S. Patent Office issued my first application, it became a patent, and that event proved to the world that I am an inventor. Now I write fiction, but the game is the same. How do I get vetted as an author? And, more importantly, how can I discover the secret of becoming a bestselling author? Fortunately, I found the key to both worlds in the Book Review Directory. Their masterful editorial review of my first work of fiction, the Golden Cord of Arram, vetted me as an author. Furthermore, the wisdom I received from their sagacious critique will benefit me during my lifelong quest for excellence.” -Walt Runkis, author of Golden Cord of Arram

“Book Review Directory provides an excellent editorial service. They reviewed my book in a short time without me paying premium pricing. The best thing about the review was their understanding of how my book is written; first half of book focus A vs. second half of book focus B.

BRD gives an honest, unbiased, and beneficial review that is reasonably priced.” -Isabella Milan, author of Praying for a Miracle When It’s Hopeless

I would definitely return to them in the future as their reviews are both impartial and insightful!” -Nathan Burton, author of A Loser Like Me
“My experience with BRD was precisely what I hoped for, which was an honest review of my book with a detailed analysis and evaluation of my writing. Additionally, throughout the page and a half critique, I came away with many quotable phrases that I, in turn, posted to social media, thereby helping readers get a feel for the essence of my poetry collection. Right from the get-go, and our interaction was professional, concise. I would highly recommend BRD. And most certainly plan to use them in the future.” -Kathleen Byron Etzel, author of Sands of Centuries Swirl by my Side
“I am so happy to have connected with their Editorial Review service. The review is so precise, in-depth, and detailed. It reflects that the editor took the time, took the story into his/her heart, and gave deep thoughts.

Your service is so crucial for new authors like me.” -Sally Suen, author of Crystal Cove
“The Book Review Directory was easy to work with, and the review clearly indicated that the reviewer had read the entire book and was able to respond intelligently and sensitively to its themes.

Randolph Jr., author of Inspired, Not Retired: Leadership Lessons from Father to Son

“A new novelist learns a lot when you author a novel. On June 15, 2023, my biography/memoir “Your Attention Please: Announcer-Cop” was published by Amazon Publishing. I had two best-selling authors/friends write reviews. Then, I learned while searching the internet about The Book Review Directory, which offered an in-depth review. I emailed my manuscript to Ryan L. and his staff on August 7, 2023. They then gave me a date in October 2023 when they would complete the review. On August 28, 2023, I was surprised when The Book Review Directory emailed me a finished review and listed my novel on their website. I wish I had had this review before I finished my manuscript, as it discussed how I could have polished the narrative for a better result. Their process was easy and reasonable, and I highly recommend their services.” -Dennis R. Packer, author of Your Attention Please: Announcer-Cop
