Thanks for taking a look at The Gilmore Guide to Books. I’m a bit of an old-school reader and reviewer in that my audience is largely other readers. I love to read and want to help other readers like me find great material. By and large, what you’ll see here are upcoming and new releases, but I am a huge library fan and there are a lot of amazing books out I missed when they were released, so I’ll write about them as well.
What I Read
♥ Literary Fiction
♥ Contemporary Fiction
♥ Historical Fiction

♥ Debut authors

I do not currently accept review requests for self-published books
-
I am not currently participating in blog tours
-
Please do not send me unsolicited books as they are not likely to get read- especially if you have no idea what I read

All books reviewed are either purchased by me, borrowed, or have been received from the publisher. If received, there is no monetary compensation and my review is my honest opinion of the work.
