We will be adding book reviews as they are submitted. Please note the following guidelines:
- The book must be on a topic that would make it eligible to compete for one of the MOS&B Literary Awards (listed below).
- The book must be available for purchase in print format. If a book is primarily available only as an e-book, then there must be some provision for purchasing a printed copy.
- Book reviews do not imply endorsement by the MOS&B.
- Book reviews are entirely separate from the MOS&B Literary Awards program. We only use the literary awards criteria as a means of specifying the subject matter of books being reviewed here.
- MOS&B reserves the right to refuse any review that, in our judgment, does not meet our standards.
- To submit a book review, please us the Contact Us link and request information about submitting a book review. You will be contacted with further information.
